snmp cross-compiler error

Hi All,
     I am using net-snmp-5.2.1.2 and i want to compile with powerpc compiler for that i used the following option for configuring.

./configure --with-cc=ppc_82xx-gcc

After this i am getting following error.

using default "enterprise.net-snmp"
using default enterprise sysOID "NET-SNMP-MIB::netSnmpAgentOIDs..."
using default notifications "NET-SNMP-MIB::netSnmpNotifications"

checking whether the C compiler works... configure: error: cannot run C compiled programs.
If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.
See `config.log' for more details.
