Well, you made a brave attempt at cross compilation. Not all packages are fixed 
to be cross compiled. To get some overview of cross compile enabled packages, 
you can try embedded gentoo list.
As I wrote earlier, there are some other approaches to the same problem. One of 
these is sbox2 project. Basically, everything needed for cross compilation is 
run through a simulator (qemu), besides compilation itself - for that is used 
your cross compiler of choice.
You are shielded from all problems based on mixing host and target libraries, 
host and target include files, from direct gcc calls instead of $CC etc.
Give it a try.
sbox2 is used for compilation and development of everything connected to Nokia 
n810 (omap arm based device having Maemo and X stack).
It worked very well for me when compiling mini distribution I am using on ts 
7260 card (busybox, shttpd, java (cacao), gnu classpath, ncurses...)
The one thing a like most with this tool, is that I am able to use host tools 
for generation of target code - not only cross tool chain, but even sun java, 
php, and any other tool. 
By the way, running java code on qemu is not possible, I think JIT compiler 
makes a problem, so this was real problem solver for me.
