Yes! See NativeNSLU2Toolchain to set up a development environment on your Unslung NSLU2, and see BuildGNUMakeOnYourNSLU2Box, MakeGNUGawkOnYourNSLU2Box, and MakeThttpdOnYourNSLU2Box for examples of doing this.

In case configure scripts for your application think that c++ is a cross compiler type two below lines before running ./configure

 bash-3.2# LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/lib
 bash-3.2# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

(above is to resolve "Checking whether the C++ compiler (c++ ) is a cross-compiler ... yes" issue)
