Yes. Partial support for that is in the CVS head. See ./configure --help 
for the precise option. Appearenly some people have problems with some 
assembler directives in the source. I've asked them to try changing a 
few lines, but got no reply. It's tough to check that myself as I don't 
have an Xscale on may hands to play with ... and the one on 
handhelds.org is mostly occupied/down.

Sorry about the delay, I wanted to make sure kaffe's CVS head's make 
dist works, and to resync woth classpath. The tarball with the CVS head 
snapshot it at http://www.kaffe.org/~robilad/kaffe-1.1.x-cvs.tar.gz
