arm cross-compile problem

I'm trying to cross-compile kaffe-1.0.6 to run on the ipaq 3670. I'm
running linux (familiar 0.4) on the ipaq. My reason for doing this is
compile it "--with-x".
The compile succeeds but when I attempt to run any .class file it seg
faults. As you probably can tell I am not experienced with
cross-compiling and I wanted to see if I have done anything wrong.
Here's what I have done:
I've downloaded and set up the toolchain from handhelds.org. I have
been able to compile several different kernels with the toolchain so I
believe I have it set up properly.
I've downloaded kaffe-1.0.6.tar.gz from kaffe.org. Then I set the
following environment variables:
export CC=arm-linux-gcc
export AS=arm-linux-as
export LD=arm-linux-ld
export CC=arm-linux-gcc
export CPP='arm-linux-gcc -E'
export AR=arm-linux-ar
export NM=arm-linux-nm
export STRIP=arm-linux-strip
export OBJCOPY=arm-linux-objcopy
export OBJDUMP=arm-linux-objdump
export RANLIB=arm-linux-ranlib
Then I issue configure like so:
./configure --with-x --host=arm-linux --prefix=/mnt/big/java/kaffe-1.0.6
The only thing printed out during configure that seems unusual is the
folowing line:
configure: warning: when cross compiling, you may want to set
ac_cv_c_char_unsigned to yes or no
I have not been able to figure out how to set "ac_cv_c_char_unsigned".
I've tried various things but none have made a difference.
I continue succesfully with "make" and "make install". I then tar up
/mnt/big/java/kaffe-1.0.6 and scp it over to the ipaq.
When I untar it and try to run anything it seg faults.
Does anyone know if this could be a problem with my cross-compiling or
with something else. Any pointers or ideas would be helpful.
thanks,
Mark
