This definitely looks like the autoconf issue we were talking about 
earlier (hence the suggestion to use a fresh Lucid install).

Quote from the CrossBuilding wiki page[1]:
"""
Checking your autoconf version

Run:

autoconf --version

If this says autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.64, then you need to get a 
different version of autoconf from somewhere (i.e. 2.63 or earlier, or 
2.65 or later). autoconf 2.64 has a bug that prevents cross-compilation 
from working. If you're using Ubuntu 9.10 (karmic), then you probably 
have this problem (Ubuntu bug 506452).
"""


You need to either grab the updated autoconf package from Lucid 
repositories and replace it with the current version on your system or 
compile it from source. The first option is the less painful one so I 
suggest you go for that.


HTH,
Omer.
