Hi wiweet
You don't need to compile directly on eBox. You can compile on any other system. However when compiling you need to make sure you select the target platform as i386 and NOT i686.
This is because the eBox does not have the CMOV instruction that is part of the i686 instruction set Therefore if you try to run a program on eBox that was compiled for i686 it will not run.
With regards to the programming language, any language can be used as long as the final software and libraries used are all for i386.
