Summary: cross compile fails when checking for glibc strerror_r API

Initial Comment:
hi,

when trying to cross compile libcurl for arm-linux the
configure script crashes as noted below. i tried
version 7.12.0

when googling for the error i came accross a change in
the configure script as of 24.03.2004 where a check for
the strerror_r function was added.
i then tried using version 7.1.11 which worked fine
with the same environment and configure parameters.

greets, peter
