Wait... Linux on the arm32 or Linux on the Intel? Considering that
the ARM-specific bits of GCC are basically the same for Linux or
NetBSD, you're either:
(1) saying something that is not true, or
(2) comparing ARM vs Intel compiler hacking (like DUH they're
going to be different).

What on EARTH are you talking about? Full source code for NetBSD/arm32
is readily available. I've been running my NetBSD/arm32 system from
NetBSD-current sources (_without local hacks_) for MONTHS (and months and
months).
