Like Robert says, the Arduino IDE ( wiring ) is packaged for x86 /

you can create your own IDE using this with different pre-compiled
binaries for a specific target. Which was done for the MSP430
launchpad ( Energia ) http://energia.nu/
With that said, this could turn into a huge project on it's own, and
probably is not worth it - for you end goals. So, there is nothing
stopping you from writing your code on an x86 system, and still using
the Beaglebone Black in conjunction with an Arduino board. If that is
what you're trying to achieve. e.g.
1. Program the Arduino via Arduino IDE, then upload the code to the
target.
2. Write a native binary for the Beaglebone Black - to communicate
with the Arduino.
3. Connect the two boards through circuitry. Just be aware that some
Arduinos use 5v I/O, where as the beagelbone black uses 3v3. So a
level shifter may be required.
So that's it from a 30,000FT view, now all that remains to figure out
is exactly how you wish to communicate with the two boards. SPI, I2C,
UART, etc.

The Arduino IDE ^^^ is packaged for 32bit/64bit "x86"... Not "arm"

A quick search revels the above link, indicating that linaro have some
version of the IDE packaged.
As the IDE is Java it should be possible to make this work, albeit with
some effort.
