Not a direct answer to your question, but I managed to cross-build a functional linux rootfs (including X11/Xfbdev and QTEmbedded) for ARM using buildroot. I found buildroot much easier to use than trying to follow the now-deprecated "Gentoo Cross Development Guide". Also, I used CodeSourcery's toolchain instead of building my own.=
