Luckily, someone else has built mingw cross tools here:

ftp://ftp.freepascal.org/pub/fpc/contrib/cross/mingw/

You can download binutils-2.15-win32-i386-linux.zip and extract it
into your fpc bin directory.  After that it's just a matter of
recompiling your rtl and packages (if needed).  Let me know if you
need help with doing this.
