Configure says that your compiler doesn't produce binaries it could
run.  You have chosen sbrsh as the "target CPU emulation" method,
is your ARM CPU transparency device working correctly?

I mean, if you compile code for ARM, can you run it?


In general, qemu is much nicer as it doesn't need any target CPU
device.  You need to use sbrsh method only if qemu target CPU emulation
fails or you're compiling for a CPU architecture which qemu doesn't
emulate.
