The specfile in the SRPM has the --enable-targets=%{_host} line commented out,
which is causing the build to fail.  I don't know if it's supposed to be
enabled or not, but the package builds without the # and without the entire
line.

There's some recent interest on the ARM mailing list for getting a
cross-compiler working[1].  Included are patches for the latest rawhide
binutils and gcc, I don't know if they're helpful for you.

I think it would be worth starting a discussion over on the ARM list about
naming conventions for cross tools.  Personally, I think the cross tools should
follow the conventions that the native tools use (it looks like they're all
using %{_target_platform}, which evaluates to i686-redhat-linux-gnu on fedora
13)
