The QNX "Realtime Platform" is a distribution including QNX Neutrino
for x86, and is freely available for non-commercial use. QNX Neutrino
actually runs on multiple processor families, including PPC, MIPS,
Super H, "and more." As such, there is still a potential for cross
compilation. "Unfortunately" I don't have any of those other
processors, so I can't be much help in that regard.
