I've used such a toolchain lately for building the linux-msm kernel -
http://gitorious.org/linux-on-qualcomm-s-msm/linux-msm/ - which is used
for various smartphones. I dunno if arm-gp2x would've worked for that
purpose, but hey. So count me as minimally interested. I can't really
help much, though, I'm at the 'monkey see monkey do' stage - I just used
whatever someone told me would do the job, following their instructions
for how to install / use it.
