What you need to do is pass gcc_cross_prefix and gcc_extra_options to LoadTool like this:

LoadTool(‘gcc-generic’, env, gcc_cross_prefix=’mipsel-linux-uclibc’, gcc_extra_options=’-static’)

I’m tried to setup a new cross target called mips-linux-uclibc. I made a Config.scons in
Build/SCons/Targets/mips-linux-uclibc

Config.scons looks as follows:
LoadTool(‘gcc-generic’, env)

env['gcc_cross_prefix'] = ‘mips-linux-uclibc’
env['gcc_extra_options'] = ‘ -static’

### Neptune System Files
env['NPT_SYSTEM_SOURCES']={‘System/StdC’:'*.cpp’, ‘System/Bsd’:'*.cpp’, ‘System/Posix’:'*.cpp’}
env['NPT_EXTRA_LIBS']=’pthread’

But this does not work, ‘gcc_cross_prefix’ is not used. The only way I found to crosscompile is to modify gcc-generic.py:
def generate(env, gcc_cross_prefix=’mips-linux-uclibc’, gcc_extra_options=”, gcc_relaxed_warnings=False):

But this is not the right way, I think.
What is wrong?
