I installed gdb-multiarch and started qemu with:

The launched gdb-multiarch and connected to port 1234.
Is this the correct toolchain for debugging PPC code on an X86 host, or do I need to do something else?
I actually build gdb from source for the architectures I need (sparc32, sparc64 and ppc), so I can't really comment on how multi-arch works.
Can I build gdb for debugging ppc code on x86?
Any instructions on how to do that?
Or should I be using a PPC host for this?
Mac OS X running in qemu-system-ppc should work just as well as a real PowerPC Mac would. It would probably mean running two instances of qemu-system-ppc on your host.
