You will have to ask the crosstool-ng developers about crosstool-ng
features.  I have never used their scripts myself.

When I need to build a cross-compiler I just do it step by step.  I
don't do it that often, and when I do there are always problems that I
have to fix.  I can't recommend that approach unless you are willing and
able to learn a lot about how all the various tools are configured and
built.
