I did. It threw the same error.

I noticed I had mistakenly placed my configparms in the source dir instead of
build. I also noticed that using arm-linux-gnueabi as the target showed me the
following warning in config.log:

configure:3704: checking for sysdeps preconfigure fragments
configure:49: WARNING: arm/preconfigure: Did not find ARM architecture type;
using default

so I switched to arm-linux-gnueabihf.

It now seems to compile fine, however make install is now failing at the
following point:

rm -f /home/martin/glibc-git/cross-build/stubs.h
/home/martin/glibc-git/cross-build/elf/sln
/home/martin/glibc-git/cross-build/elf/symlink.list
/home/martin/glibc-git/cross-build/elf/sln: 1:
/home/martin/glibc-git/cross-build/elf/sln: Syntax error: word unexpected
(expecting ")")

I initially thought it was a rpcgen error, but now I realize it's a Bash error.

My configure line is:

../source/configure --prefix="/home/martin/glibc-git/cross-install"
CC=arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc arm-linux-gnueabihf

I noticed configure is warning me that I should use --target, however if I use
--target=arm-linux-gnueabihf it tries to compile using the x86 toolchain.
