There were plans to drop m68k support in GCC version 11 if certain 
required changes were not made. Someone made those changes, so after all 
  m68k support remained and is present and working, even in GCC 12. 
However, the number of readily available host/target combinations for 
cross compiling is quite limited these days, so you will be mostly on 
your own there.

I made a cross development environment for Minix-68k (mostly Atari ST 
and TT), hosted on FreeBSD, but also working on Linux and Mac. Maybe you 
could use that as a starting point. It currently works up to GCC 12.2, 
for C, C++ and Fortran. See http://www.beastielabs.net/crossdev.html.

If you need further discussion, you can contact me off-list.
