ARM920 doesn't look like a machine you want to use for image processing.
But in the end you can use all image processing libraries available for
Linux, for example 

http://vision.eng.shu.ac.uk/mediawiki-1.4.10/index.php/Mimas
http://cimg.sourceforge.net/index.shtml
http://openil.sourceforge.net/about.php

or others (search on freshmeat.net). Note that you usually don't have
floating point support on ARM, so using softfloat toolchains is a good
idea. Note also that c++ libraries, especially newer ones, tend to be
_huge_.
