I use GCC to compile C for embedded Linux. As long as the ./configure supports cross-compiling everything goes smoothly. Some libraries I've tried to use don't support the CC flag, so I have to do some makefile hacking to get it to work. But in the end, it's still GCC so I haven't run into any real complications. I assume some embedded devices will have required features left out of the kernel. This may require a kernel recompile, unless xastir can do without the feature. Speaking of cell-phones, I'd like to play with the iPhone SDK to see what the mapping API is like (at this point I assume they give access to the Google Maps app...). It might just require a layer between the xastir daemon and Maps to get APRS running (APRS-IS only of course). I'm definitely not familiar enough with the SDK to know what will be required to run the daemon, if it's possible.
