FWIW, OpenEmbedded (http://www.openembedded.org/) is a very capable
toolchain builder amongst other things. I built an ARM toolchain for
Andrew a while back with it. I'm personally not sure of its support
outside ARM/i386 since I don't have hardware to test any other output
but others use it for a variety of targets and new ones are simple to
add due to its design.
I could probably arrange to share an ARM toolchain if there was
demand...
