Problems cross-compiling cURL for ARM

I am using the following in an attempt to compile cURL for a "bitsy"
strongARM processor
I'm using version curl-7.10.3
#
# add toolchain path to PATH
           export PATH=$PATH:/data/lart/cross/bin
           export CC=arm-linux-gcc
           export LD=arm-linux-ld
           export AR=arm-linux-ar
           export AS=arm-linux-as # added jad why??
           export NM=arm-linux-nm
           export RANLIB=arm-linux-ranlib

     env
     cd /home/jdoutt/download/bitsy/download/curl-7.10.3.orig

     make distclean
     make clean
     ./configure_new --build=i586-pc-linux-gnu --host=arm-linux
--target=arm-linux

However, the script above terminates with the following error message
indicating a problem finding /dev/urandom

   checking whether to enable ipv6... no
   checking for gethostbyname... yes
   checking for strcasecmp... yes
   checking for connect... yes
   checking for dlclose... no
   checking for dlopen in -ldl... yes
   checking non-blocking sockets style... O_NONBLOCK
   checking for "/dev/urandom"... configure_new: error: cannot check for
file existence when cross compiling

Any suggestions on how to proceed?
