Hello Stephen,

I would strongly suggest to use crossdev-wrappers for this kind of
jobs, as it automatically cares about this kind of problems. However,
you might want to fix this problem yourself, so here we go. When
cross-compiling, target programs can not be executed as they are
probably compiled for an incompatible architecture (as the error
states). Hence, you have to provide the result of the program run
yourself using autoconf-cache values. Try to do the following:

i_cv_epoll_works=yes ./configure --prefix=/opt
--host=armv5tel-softfloat-linux-gnueabi

Please check if epoll really works in your setup and change the value
to "no" if it doesn't.

Have fun!

    Sven
