Bill, you bastard! :-)

Hi Ricardo!
My crosstool script, http://kegel.com/crosstool,
will probably not help because it targets linux, not
MacOSX, Solaris, or FreeBSD.   A

But I bet there are plenty of recipes out there on the net
for how to do it.  The main thing you need to know is you
need to copy the system include files and some libraries
from the target systems onto your build system (maybe you already knew that).

Google can find a few recipes, e.g. here are a few for
targeting solaris:
http://is.rice.edu/~welsh/cross-compiler/
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2002-04/msg00289.html

Once you get one working, the rest shouldn't be too bad.
Good luck!
- Dan
