Android crosscompiler

Hey,

I would like to compile haskell to android using the android ndk.
I saw this message for blackberry: 
http://web.archiveorange.com/archive/v/j7U5dAvNego9GwzeIPFn
I thought, well, than it should somehow work for android too.

So I fetched ghc cvs and tried to do something similar as the patch for 
blackberry (without knowing what I am doing).
Now, configure:

   ./configure --target=arm-linux-androideabi --build=i686-linux-gnu 
--host=arm-linux-androideabi 
--with-sysroot=/home/ls/src/android-ndk/platforms/android-14/arch-arm

fails with:

   configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables

I am passing the "-with-sysroot" parameter, because

   arm-linux-androideabi-gcc test.c 
--sysroot=/home/ls/src/android-ndk/platforms/android-14/arch-arm

works.
Looking at config.log, it seems the --sysroot is not passed to 
arm-linux-androideabi-gcc.

Now, I do not know if the problem has something to do with the ghc build 
system, or if it is general autotools related.

Am I on the right track for building haskell programs on android?
Can anyone give advise what to do to reach this goal?
I am willing to put time into this, but I do not really know where to 
start...

Thanks!
Nathan
