dont confuse pure cross with canadian cross. You are doing a normal
cross build here which means build machine is same as host machine.

Your problem is probably because you are overriding CC and friends
which could be confusing (already confused) configure even more.

Try setting CC_FOR_BUILD=<your native compiler on the build machine>
