There is no need to build your own cross-compiler any longer. Save your time
and hair by just installing our pre-built compilers (assuming you have an
x86 host):

That page is rather out of date. What you should do is:

Add these lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list:

# deb http://www.emdebian.org/emdebian-tools/oldstable ./
deb http://www.emdebian.org/emdebian-tools/stable ./
# deb http://www.emdebian.org/emdebian-tools/unstable ./

then do 
 aptitude update
 aptitude install gcc-3.3-arm-linux
(which will install the full toolchain (binutils, gcc, cpp, glibc)

You can alternatively install gcc-3.4-arm-linux (which is probably a good
idea as 3.3 is now out of date).
