I think so.
First build a cross compiler (with the libraries for the target system).
Then use that to build a compiler for ther target system that'll run on the 
target system.

Acutally, I have no idea how to configure the second compiler.
Have a look at how canadian cross compiler are built, that might give you a 
hint (http://www.objsw.com/CrossGCC/FAQ-4.html#ss4.9).
Someone with more experien in cross compiler might help here, also.

HTH, fwyzard
