> So what was your solution?

I user qemu-user to run the arm binary and distcc to use a native cross 
compiler.

The only problem is making chroot working with arm binary. The solution is to 
copy /usr/bin/qemu-static-arm and /usr/bin/qemu-static-arm-binfmt in the chroot 
directory.

I used this solution to build a simple stage4 with x11 for my Raspberry Pi. 

You also need to modify chroot-functions.sh to fix a problem in get_libdir(). 
For now I just hardcoded the returned value.

> I don't think actively no.

My solution only requires copying 2 files and deleting them at the end.  This 
should not be difficult to add.

I can add a new option in catalyst to make this possible but I will need some 
help to do it properly. I never programed in python and my knowledge in bash is 
limited.
