cross-compiling is set to yes.  It looks like I have the build argument
set incorrectly (to x86) on my configure line.

It seems like that is still a bug in the Makefile though, should I
submit a patch?

I found one other issue while doing 'make check'.  I am using GCC 4.6.3
on MIPS and string/tester.c didn't compile due to a
memset-transposed-args warning.  It looks like there is handling for
this in GCC 5.0 and later but not for 4.6.
