Hi back,
1. Take a cross compiler
E.g. from  http://www.lart.tudelft.nl/lartware/compile-tools/

2. Set up your enviroment for it (you may need the linux-include 	  
"include/asm-arm" mapped to include/asm )

3. Change your PATH enviroment variable or - so do I -
change the Makefile in the source directory, so that CC points to your cross 
compiler (after normal configure).


4. Compile it.

You have to be aware, that you may need additional libraries (e.g. libcups).
You can cross-compile them the same way as described before or look at the 
debian sites - they have nearly everything for arm in binary packages.

Greets, 
Martin
