If you --disable-hipe then yes it should work.

With --enable-hipe you may need R12B-recent, as R11 possibly
only supports big-endian v5te (xscale). Which generation is
ARM9, v4? v5? -te? I'm not sure HiPE will support v4.

I routinely build natively and test HiPE on a little-endian
XScale 80219 and a big-endian XScale IXP420.
