I removed the --host option as suggested. Here is the start of config.log file:

--------------------------------
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by curl configure -, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.64. Invocation command line was

  $ ./configure --disable-shared --disable-ares --disable-cookies
--disable-crypto-auth --disable-ipv6 --disable-verbose
--without-libidn --without-zlib --disable-ldap --disable-thread
--disable-shared --host=arm-elf --without-ssl --without-libssh2
