I believe if you have a Linux box to hand, building any of our ports is
reasonably straightforward as we provide pre-built toolchains and
instructions on how to drive it all. (We cross-compile everything from
Linux because life's too short to build software on RISC OS and Windows
natively.)

Modifying the Makefiles to pass something like -march=i586 should target
CPUs with no MMX oe SSE support.
