Hmm. Do you want to port gcc to a new, unsupported target or to
install a cross compiler for an existing target? ARM is a supported
target, after all.


In any case, all this is documented in the GCC manual. I recommend to
read the texinfo nodes (gcc)Portability, (gcc)Interface, (gcc)RTL,
(gcc)Machine Desc, (gcc)Target Macros, (gcc)Config, (gcc)Fragments,
and (gcc)Installation - the latter one should be sufficient when
creating a compiler for a supported architecture.

Martin
