There are prebuilt static binaries at http://busybox.net/downloads/binaries 
for lots of architectures, and they should run under qemu-arm and such.

For powerpc, you need current -git because of this issue:

If you'd like to compile the above binaries yourself, prebuilt cross compilers 
for various targets are at http://impactlinux.com/fwl/downloads/binaries and 
you use 'em like:

  make menuconfig
  PATH=/blah/cross-compiler-mips/bin:$PATH make CROSS_COMPILE=mips-
