In that case why don't you just go ahead and use the stage 3 provided for the pi? I know you said you didn't want to use it earlier, but assuming your using the default profile to cross compile it will pull in everything that's in the stage3 tarball anyway. Once the stage 3 is setup you can use distcc and get rid of the stuff you dont want. Another thing you can do to speed things up is mount the root file system over NFS or on a usb hdd.
