Given current technology, the simplest way is to have a VM with the
various OS you need, and a native compiler on each.

Since the VM can access the host's disk, you keep only one set of source
files, and it's much simpler than building you own cross-compiler.

At least, that's what I do when I need f.e. to build the Linux version
of AdaControl from my Windows laptop (I also have a real Linux box in
the office, but I'm often away from it).
