cd src/sys/arch
cvs -q up -dP -r ppcoea-renovation

Crosscompilation is the normal way to build NetBSD for some years now.
Any POSIX compliant Unix (like) OS should be usable as build host.

Please don't expect somthing that will run well on the EFIKA or Pegasos.
Especially the EFIKA. As it is based on a SOC all on chip peripherals
are not attached via PCI. So all of those peripherals will need a bit
bus_space(9) / bus_dma(9) and machine dependent attachment glue.
