That would be a great help to those of us who aren't used to doing this sort of thing (especially cross-compiling from Windows-based machines), and much appreciated.

froghunter and I had two previous threads on this theme:

froghunter played around a fair bit, but neither of us got this far.

Also, as froghunter suggested, it would be worth contacting the Squeezebox team to see whether they would be willing to make the binaries available (unsupported). Especially if there is no sound playback incorporated in the Maemo version, this can only be a good thing for them. Like many people, I bought my n800 specifically to control my hi-fi and am only looking for another form of controlling my Squeezebox. (Personally, I prefer the display and IR control of the Squeezebox2 for the living room, but like using Moose and SqueezePlay (on my Windows PC) occasionally to browse and show cover art - it would be nice not to have to remote-desktop from my n800 into my PC to do this and to have a standalone SqueezePlay on the n800).

Anyway, if this could be made more broadly available to those of us without much cross-compiling experience, either by Logitech hosting the binaries or by someone posting easy-to-follow compiling instructions, that would be really great.
