You might consider using rebootstrap[1]. Even though it is intended as a QA tool, it can help you get these things done. Currently, it builds a cross toolchain and some 100 packages that are part of the transitive closure of build-essential. If you want to pursue that path, Simon McVittie's mail applies, because using rebootstrap requires a Debian architecture name. Also note that python2.7 can be cross compiled on Debian. You don't even need patches, it just works. (This doesn't apply to python3.4, which is cross BD-uninstallable due to #779458.) If you need help with any of this, stop by #debian-bootstrap on oftc.
