I didn't find any documentation - but theoretically it isn't too hard.
gcc and binutils are designed to be configured to act as
cross-compilers.

I took Corel's source code, and the packaging from the m68k cross
compiler packages (binutils-m68k-linux, gcc-m68k-linux, which are
included in Debian), and tried to work it out from there.
