Do all of these platforms support multi threading?
Is it possible to crosscompile for Pocket PC from Linux?

Yes all these platforms support multithreading, and they all have something
approaching BSD sockets. I do not know enough about Linux to answer your
second question but MS does offer a free windows based IDE for Pocket PC,
you can get this from:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/device/embedded/download.aspx you need the
embedded visual tools 3 and the pocket pc 2002 sdk. 

I hope this helps
