Linux cross-compilation for ARM architecture

I am interested in cross-compiling a Linux kernel for an ARM target on a x86 host. Are there some good practices you recommend? Which is the best cross-compile suite in your opinion? Have you settled up a custom cross-compile environment? If yes, what advices do you have? Is it a good idea?

This is what Eurotech uses for their Debian ARM distibution. You'll note that they don't recommend using a cross compiler if you can avoid it. Compiling on the target itself tends to be a more reliable way of getting outputs that you know will run.
