If anything needs to be fixed here, it would be automake or possibly
autoconf.  However, my understanding of autoconf is that it's up to the
developer to specify the cross tools.  How did it find the cross
compiler?  Didn't you have to set CC when you ran "configure"?  You
would also have to specify AR as well.

I'll look at this one.
