Hello Sergei,

We are working on the cross toolchains to have a complete release for Squeeze.
Status is at: http://emdebian.org/debian/ (Package status)
http://wiki.debian.org/EmdebianToolchain is more up to date.

They build fine, and PowerPC should be fine, let me know if you got
any problems.
For building from source, you can either follow:
http://wiki.debian.org/EmdebianToolchain#Buildyourownfromsources
or use buildcross which now lives at (or in `experimental' Debian suite)
http://buildd.emdebian.org/svn/browser/current/host/trunk/buildcross/trunk
work is in progress.
> What are the versions of GCC and binutils used for cross-toolchain?
Same ones as in Debian native toolchains, while sometimes go behind or
forward. So, binutils-2.20, gcc-4.4, gcc-4.3 are available. You could
attempt to build gcc-4.5 and binutils-2.20.51 from experimental.
