There's no arm port because of lack of testing.

ARM is even more complicated than MIPS. There are multiple targets for  
ARM and there is soft float and hard float and probably a combination.  
It' s not cut and dry to add to the main cross-lfs book. If someone  
can give all of the options for build flags and for target and build  
for most arm options, then maybe. I don't have arm hardware to test.   
Your configuration may work, but not for all arm devices. Arm isn't  
for the weak.

If ou want ARM added to the main book, it should have all options  
covered. If you have a vast access to different ARM systems, then have  
some fun!

Sincerely,
