The short answer is that, no, the Linaro *binary* releases will not support -march=armv5.

However, you can build your own compiler from the Linaro sources, and then build the libraries you need to match, and you can have v5 support. This is not a straightforward process. :(

You can always use the OpenWrt buildroot to easily build a custom Linaro-based crosscompiler, just make sure you select the right libc for your needs (we use uClibc by default) and a target similar to yours.
