You don't say _what_ kind of cross-compiler you want.

Use the available cross-compilers from ports. There is a good chance
someone else has already sorted it out.

You can find a complete list of cross-compilers with 
'ls /usr/ports/devel/*-gcc/Makefile':

/usr/ports/devel/arm-rtems-gcc/Makefile
/usr/ports/devel/avr-gcc/Makefile
/usr/ports/devel/cross-gcc/Makefile
/usr/ports/devel/djgpp-gcc/Makefile
/usr/ports/devel/i386-rtems-gcc/Makefile
/usr/ports/devel/i960-rtems-gcc/Makefile
/usr/ports/devel/m68k-rtems-gcc/Makefile
/usr/ports/devel/mingw32-gcc/Makefile
/usr/ports/devel/mips-rtems-gcc/Makefile
/usr/ports/devel/msp430-gcc/Makefile
/usr/ports/devel/powerpc-gcc/Makefile
/usr/ports/devel/powerpc-rtems-gcc/Makefile
/usr/ports/devel/sh-rtems-gcc/Makefile
/usr/ports/devel/sparc-rtems-gcc/Makefile

Note that cross-gcc is a master port for most of the others except
mingw32-gcc. If you want to cross-compile for win32, use mingw32-gcc.
