Hi Mike,

There are nds32 toolchains.
https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/tools/crosstool/files/bin/x86_64/8.1.0/=
x86_64-gcc-8.1.0-nolibc-nds32le-linux.tar.gz
https://github.com/vincentzwc/prebuilt-nds32-toolchain/releases/download/20=
180521/nds32le-linux-glibc-v3-upstream.tar.gz

Sorry, we have no qemu yet.
