Sorry for the late reply -- see:

Binary i386 -> ARM packages are here:
http://www.wantstofly.org/~buytenh/cross/
I was wondering if it would be possible to package this up in a way that
would be easy to install.
For e.g., a cross-toolchain package, which requires all the other
packages -- gcc, binutils, etc. (not sure how to deal with glibc in that
context). So, you can just do:
yum install cross-toolchain-arm
and, you have everything you need.
