crosstool-NG does not support the Intel Compiler (whatever that may be
(yes, I know what it is)). The only compiler supported by crosstool-NG
is gcc.

No, you can use /old/ kernel headers to build the toolchain, and run a
newer kernel on the target.

Of course, you loose whatever new features that were exposed to userland
since the /old/ kernel was released, but as you use an old glibc, those
features would anyway not be available to you.
