Any interest in a repo of cross-compilers?

I recently had to make a couple of cross-compilers for a project that I was working on and wondered if there was any interest in a repo for cross-compilers?

These are compilers that I know I can easily build (target triplet in brackets)
linux-32bit:
arm (arm-none-linux-gnueabi)
ppc (powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu)
mips (mips-unknown-linux-gnu / mipsel-unknown-linux-gnu)
sparc (sparc-unknown-linux-gnu)

linux-64 bit:
alpha (alpha-unknown-linux-gnu)
mips64 (mips64-unknown-linux-gnu / mips64el-unknown-linux-gnu)
sparc64 (sparc64-unknown-linux-gnu)
ppc64 (powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu)
hppa (hppa-unknown-linux-gnu)   [probably...]

other:
windows (i686-pc-mingw32)

And some that I think can be done and would be quite interesting...
bsd (i686-pc-kfreebsd-gnu) - the start to the often suggested ArchBSD maybe...
hurd (i686-pc-gnu) - ArchHURD anyone?  I didn't think so! 

So, would these be useful for anyone and are there any other architectures people would like?

For those that are interested, my mingw32 compiler PKGBUILDs are here.  They are quite different to those in the [community] repo...

this is interesting, arm and mips compilers (32bit) could be useful for me

Re: Any interest in a repo of cross-compilers?

I'll be doing lots of stuff with arm since I'm starting to make some homebrew apps for nds.
But I'm already using:

pkg: cross-arm-elf-binutils
pkg: cross-arm-elf-gcc-base
