At least 32-bit and 64-bit of mixtures. x86 and ARMv7 is not enough. For example something like: $ apt-get install build-essential gcc-4.8-multilib gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu libc6-dev-arm64-cross gcc-powerpc-linux-gnu (PPC can be built for 32- and 64-bit) And you can get MIPS from CodeSourcery. Toggling COMPILE_TEST with this may break someone's else allyesconfig.
