There is no arm-linux-ldd in the cross-compile chain only a arm binary 
ldd. I tried that on the iPaq with sdl and that gave me:

./ldd: /usr/local/arm/2.95.3/arm-linux/lib/ld-linux.so.2: No such file 
or directory
ldd: /usr/local/arm/2.95.3/arm-linux/lib/ld-linux.so.2 $exited with 
unknown exit code (127)

SDL now uses:
sdl_LDFLAGS =  -L/usr/local/arm/2.95.3/arm-linux/usr/lib 
-Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/arm/2.95.3/arm-linux/usr/lib -lSDL -lpthread

After dropping the use of --exec-prefix= from the configure.in and 
configure script. Togther with changing SDL to link against X-libraries 
form the current distribution it seems to fix this problem. It has built 
and run allright now.

Next to fix compiling and linking of GLIB and GTK, before building vlc 
with familiar gui,.
