That is because this check in configure is wrong:
if [ -x "${CROSS_PREFIX}ar" ]; then

You don't have the full path here, you should try to execute it rather.
Also the uname extraction from CHOST is wrong (it only works if the 
triple has 4 components).
And with that fixed the uname comes out lowercase so that needs to be 
added too.

Attached patch should fix these.
