I'm not sure.

I think the Debian people are currently planning to compile their binaries
with -march=armv3 (which is the EGCS default). So you should be OK in that
respect.

All I can suggest there is that you dive into the code and have a go. The
compiler isn't really all that frightening so long as you don't try to
understand it all at once. Everything you need for this hack should be
contained in the ARM back end.
