In my understanding, making a cross build system with no proprietary components (the executables, libraries, header files that are not permitted to be copied to non-Apple products) is almost impossible. 1) binary utilities for Mac OS X (especially otool, ar, ld) are published under the open source certified license, but it is not ready to be compiled by "./configure && make && make install" style. I remember it requires Mach-O kernel headers etc. Also, the latest linker is designed to be compiled with Xcode, not by command line "make". 2) the most part of window system of Mac OS X is not published under the open source license, maybe copying the headers & libraries to other computers are not permitted. I'm not sure whether Apple permit to expose them to other computers via network sharing, like, NFS etc (I guess it is prohibited).
