I guess this updated HOWTO is also obsolete. I would suggest to try to 
look how cross-compiler RPM packages are being built. You can see build 
steps done from SPEC file that can be found in soure RPM package.

One can get it from either DJGPP distribution or my pages:

ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/rpms
http://ap1.pp.fi/djgpp/gcc

If You want to keep download small then You can find required file 
inside one of archives:

http://ap1.pp.fi/djgpp/gcc/4.6.3/src/djcross-gcc-4.6.3.tar.bz2
http://ap1.pp.fi/djgpp/gcc/4.7.0/src/djcross-gcc-4.7.0.tar.bz2

which contains source modifications and additional files only.

PS. One may also try to convert package type to .deb (not guaranteed to 
work, but maybe it does). Googles search returns for example:
