How can I cross-compile the packages for ARM on i386 FreeBSD?

[Mattia Rossi]

Here you'll find my experience with cross-compiling:

You need to play with the configure args and the -rpath an -L settings a 
bit, and compile one port a at a time (each dependency by itself) for 
best results.

The end of cross-compiling came to me in the form of perl..
