[kaffe] porting kaffe to arm/uCLinux

[Nick.Faulwetter at Stud.Tu-Ilmenau.De]

Hello,
 
is there anyone who can tell me how to compile kaffe for an ARM with uClinux?
It was no problem to install kaffe on my PC (i586-linux).
By the fact that there exists a subdirectory "config/arm" i thought,
cross-compiling for arm would be simple, too. I followed the instructions in the
FAQ but when i started make, it ended with an error:
 
/*...there is very much stuff before here*/

I started "configure" with following options: 
 
KAFFEH="/wrk2/usr/cad/nfaulwet/kaffe-native/bin/kaffeh" \
CC="/usr/local/arm-elf/bin/gcc" \
AR="/usr/local/arm-elf/bin/ar" \
NM="/usr/local/arm-elf/bin/nm" \
../kaffe-1.1.4/configure \
--host=arm-linux \
--build=i586-linux \
--with-rt-jar=/tmp/rt.jar \
--enable-pure-java-math \
--with-includes=/uClibc-0.9.11/include \
--with-libraries=/uClibc-0.9.11/lib
 
where /usr/local/arm-elf/bin is the directory of my cross-compiling-tools
and /wrk2/usr/cad/nfaulwet/kaffe-arm is the directory where i want to have
the kaffe installed.
 
Please tell me, what i'm doing wrong.
Do i have to change the configure-options? 
(I already tried several ones, some leaded to different make-errors than the one above)
Or do i need a different ld.read-version? Which one? Where can i get it?
Are there other aspects i have to consider?
If you have a kaffe running on arm/linux please tell me every detail of how you did it.
 
My greatest thanks to everybody who answers.
