Have you tried the steps described at:
    http://snark.ptc.spbu.ru/~uwe/netbsd/cross.html

You will not have to add a lot of cruft like:

> CFLAGS=-nostdinc -isystem ../netbsd_quilt/src/obj/destdir.evbarm/usr/include
> LDFLAGS= -Wl,-nostdlib
> LDFLAGS1=-Wl,-rpath-link,$(BASE)/lib:$(BASE)/usr/lib -L$(BASE)/lib
> -B$(BASE)/lib -B$(BASE)/usr/lib

It used to work for me.  I used it for cross-compiling a project that
targeted (among other things) NetBSD/sh3 and NetBSD/arm, and you just
need to set CC, LD, etc to the $tooldir/foo-netbsd-gcc etc.
