Cross compilation depends on the build system (configure.ac and
Makefile.am). In particular, during cross compilation, compilation and
linking will work but no programs can be run (of course).

For more information, you can check
http://sources.redhat.com/autobook/autobook/autobook_258.html and
http://sources.redhat.com/autobook/autobook/autobook_269.html#SEC269 for
more details.

I can provide complete patches to fix the cross compilation problem.
They involve changes to configure.ac, src/libdar/Makefile.am, and
possibly some other files.

Thanks,
Wesley
