If so, can you please send me any information, links, etc.? why the effort of making cross compiling tools ? if one need to develop application for given operating system, isn't more convenient to use the os as primary incubator for that software? + using virtualization is giving you false idea of how your app and underline os perform and interact with each other. take spare machine install needed version of freebsd using handbook and online how-to's on how to configure ssh and log in from your windows machine if you don't have the skills to manage sole freebsd machine as both desktop and develop environment. thus you have box to torture and you already have compiler, debugger et cetera...
