It sounds like something in your paths are messed up in chicken-cross.
What is happening during do_install? Where are the files ending up? What
paths do they have?

+EXTRA_OEMAKE += " \
+    PROGRAM_PREFIX=${TARGET_PREFIX} \
+    TARGET_PREFIX=${STAGING_DIR_TARGET} \

This looks a little odd...

My guess is that things end up in the wrong place during do_install and
the system therefore fails to pick them up. The binaries should be in
${D}${bindir} for example.
