gcc in freebsd to compile linux software

[Javier Matos]

Hi, I need to compile a program to run it in a linux box.
I know that freebsd has linux compatibility with binary files.

Can I compile using freebsd gcc a binary file that can run under linux and try 
if it works with freebsd binary linux emulation??

If it is possible... what kind of options need I to put when I compile with gcc?

Thx!

No, but if you install a linux_devtools* port you can chroot to
/compat/linux and build "as usual" with the linux gcc there.
