cross-compile

[Sir Ace]

I downloaded the texinfo-4.0 from sunsite, and am trying to cross-compile
it for the sh4 platform. {apparently it's a prerequisite to compile glibc}

this:

bash-2.05# ac_cv_func_setvbuf_reversed=yes ./configure --prefix=$PREFIX \
--target=$TARGET

where $PREFIX=/usr/local/
and   $TARGET=sh4-linux

bash-2.05# make

yeilds:

make  all-recursive
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/dreamcast/texinfo-4.0'
Making all in intl
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/dreamcast/texinfo-4.0/intl'
make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/dreamcast/texinfo-4.0/intl'
Making all in lib
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/dreamcast/texinfo-4.0/lib'

make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/dreamcast/texinfo-4.0/lib'
Making all in info
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/dreamcast/texinfo-4.0/info'
rm -f doc.c funs.h
./makedoc ./session.c ./echo-area.c ./infodoc.c   ./m-x.c ./indices.c
./nodemenu.c   ./footnotes.c ./variables.c
./makedoc: ./makedoc: cannot execute binary file
make[2]: *** [funs.h] Error 126
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/dreamcast/texinfo-4.0/info'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/dreamcast/texinfo-4.0'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2

Aparently from the Makefile the makedoc executable needs to generate
a few other files, unfortunately if you are cross compiling the
output executeables {makedoc in this case} can't be run on the machine.
  Help?
