No, because it is a native compiler, not a cross compiler.

You can use the cygwin GCC to build yourself a cross compiler for ARM
targets. Have a look at the crossgcc FAQ:

  http://www.objsw.com/CrossGCC/

If you are running Linux, there are quite some precompiled ARM cross
compilers available, for example:

  http://www.lart.tudelft.nl/lartware/compile-tools/

(Yes, that's my own cross compiler ;-)

Some advise in dealing with mailing lists: don't use HTML messages, use
plain text with US ascii charset and quoted-printable encoding.
