Building a cross compilier with GCC is cake.  All that is needed
is gcc, gnu's binutils (has a linker, archiver), gas, and the
libraries and includes for the target platform, in this case macbsd.
To make a cross compilier from netbsd it will be even easier since
most of the includes exist on the machine already.  The docs that
come with gcc tell how to do this in a fairly clear manner.  I made
a cross compilier from Interactive Unix on a 486 to a Sparc running
Sunos4 (and another one for Solaris) last week and had no major
problems.  Who wants to it?
