Nope, it's being cross-compiled. Not much point in building on the board itself 
given the speed of the CPU.

Your toolchain prefix is different from what I'm using. Here's another slice of 
my Picocom Makefile:

CXX=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-g++
CC=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc

Heres the info returned from 'file picocom'.

picocom: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 
2.4.17, statically linked, not stripped
