Depends on what flavor of Unix, and what platform. The short answer is, I
don't know. It should be possible, though. You will need to use bash, get
the official GNU GCC and Binutils sources, try to run the configure script
of GCC (making this work will probably be the hard part), install the
libraries and headers from the target system, build some cross-binutils
which may be almost as difficult.

Don't know of one. DJGPP seems the most likely to me.

I believe I have seen postings from people who have built DJGPP as a
cross-compiler, so maybe they will follow up.
