Trimmed the CC' as this is a bit of a tangent. Crosstool did a good job but seems to be less current than we'd like for the kernel[1]. When using crosstool in the past I found a lot of the complexity was in *libc to the toolcahins I've built don';t have a libc so they're only helpful for kernel (or similar) builds. In terms of "testing", I build a kernel for each toolchain but I don't boot them and in the past I think blackfin said that what I had wouldn't actually be runable. Last time I looked the wasn't a non-intel cross-toolchain for blackfin. I shoudl also mention that a subset of these compilers are used to build test linux-next daily.
