Speaking about Zecke way and Poky way. This is how it works in Poky:

1. fetch Poky SDK
2. cd /; tar xf PokySDK.tar.bz2
3. "source /usr/local/poky/eabi-glibc/arm/environment-setup"
4. "opkg-target update" - by default it use local build feed so need to 
    point it to remote feeds first.
5. "opkg-target install libts-dev" will install development headers/libs 
    for tslib and all it's dependencies.
6. build you application - you have cross toolchain, all libraries you 
   need etc.

I just built Tasks 0.13 this way. All I needed was "opkg-target install 
libecal-1.2-dev" and then "configure" with cross-compilation flags 
+ "make". Result was:

Fixing apps to stop polling and thrashing the disk would be of more use 
than using 'gcc -OMG'
