AR9331 native C compiler

Official Hardware Classic Yún

There was a thread about cross compiling C for the AR9331. The solutions were for compiling on Linux.

Why not compile on the AR9311 itself? Can somebody find a link for how to do that?

Because running gcc on the flash RAM of the Yun is just wearing it out pretty fast maybe? :~

Here is a post that implies it is possible AVR Toolchain for the YUN - Arduino Yún - Arduino Forum
Limited ram is going to make it slow.

It isn't hard to cross compile, if you are tied to windows you can set up a virtual Linux environment.

Couldn't compiling be done on a thumb drive or USB? The link AVR Toolchain for the YUN - Arduino Yún - Arduino Forum is for the AVR side.

There must be a compiler that runs on AR9931. I am trying to avoid running linux on mac, but if I must...

It would be great to get a detailed explanation of how to compile or cross compile from someone who has actually succeeded.
