Would it be possible to initially compile GNUstep (or at least run
configure) on the device itself?

Writing Makefiles manually for cross compiling purposes would also be
another possibility. SDL ships with several makefiles, presumably for OSes
that cannot run configure.

Also, it would probably be enough to write these makefiles for gnustep-make.
