[uClibc]openssh

[Claus Rosenberger]

this is the message :

checking whether struct dirent allocates space for d_name... configure:
error: cannot run test program while cross compiling

that looks like your description of the problem

these is the script part

if test "$cross_compiling" = yes; then
  {{echo "blabla...." >&5
    echo "blabla...." >&2;}
   { (exit 1); exit 1; }; }

.....


should i remark the exit 1 statements ?
