Cross compiling LFTP fails


Hi,
I am trying to cross compile lftp-4.3.5 for my arm based board. Its failing at some point. Below are few lines from log:

....
checking for util.h... no
checking sys/stropts.h usability... yes
checking sys/stropts.h presence... yes
checking for sys/stropts.h... yes
checking pty.h usability... yes
checking pty.h presence... yes
checking for pty.h... yes
checking for library containing openpty... -lutil
checking for _getpty... configure: error: in `/home/xxxx/yyyy/lftp-4.3.5':
checking whether posix_fallocate() works... no
configure: error: cannot run test program while cross compiling
See `config.log' for more details


I tried to run the config file as:
./configure --host=arm-montavista-linux CC=/home/mvdev/montavista/tools/arm-gnueabi/bin/arm-montavista-linux-gnueabi-gcc

Can anybody help me pointing out what is the issue here.
Thanks

I checked the config.log, but could not figure out what is the issue here. I tried to fix this issue and then getting another problem now. This config system is not able to find readline package though I have given both the include and lib path as mentioned in http://www.friendlyarm.net/forum/topic/3424 but of no help (this thread not telling the final solution).

My ubuntu machine has this readline package, even I downloaded the package and cross-compiled it, and provided the same path to config system but of no use.

Any help pls.

Thanks
