You need a cross-toolchain for this. It isn't especially hard to set up,
the harder part is to get the rigth otpions in the application's Makefiles,
which aren't necesserely designed for that.
The new NetBSD toolchain may help you a lot for this.
Unfortinably there a still bugs in the toolchain itself, which prevents
compiling for a 64bit target on a 32bit host.
