Hi all,
I've finally managed to set up a working cross-compiler for MIPS-Irix on a
Cygwin environment. Sort of a bloodbath, really. But funny indeed.
Now I want to cross-compile aMule to avoid the bottleneck of compiling
it on my old O2. Is there anybody out there having any experience on cross
compilation of Amule? Any suggestion/advice/hint is warmly welcomed
(except "Quit now and don't waste your time anymore")
Cheers,

Be prepared that configure is sometimes likely to find native libraries instead of host libraries. For example, when I cross-compile to mingw32 on linux, I have to use the following:
../configure \
--host=mingw32 \
--with-wx-config=/usr/local/mingw32/bin/wx-config \
--with-crypto-prefix=/usr/local/mingw32 \
--without-libpng-config \
"$@"

You might find some helpful information in my recent wiki article: http://www.amule.org/wiki/index.php/Cross-compilation_for_windows_with_mingw
I've only cross-compiled for Mac, Linux ARMel and Windows from Linux, but the basic steps were always the same. (Only setting up the environment was a different PITA...) I believe it should be identical for cygwin.

Thanks you all. This definitely helps.
