You're right. I've removed that part from my build script.

Nope. Same error as previously noted.

This is a fragment of libiberty's configure:
---------------------------------------------------------
echo "$as_me:$LINENO: checking for working strncmp" >&5
echo $ECHO_N "checking for working strncmp... $ECHO_C" >&6
if test "${ac_cv_func_strncmp_works+set}" = set; then
  echo $ECHO_N "(cached) $ECHO_C" >&6
else
  if test "$cross_compiling" = yes; then
  ac_cv_func_strncmp_works=no
else
  cat >conftest.$ac_ext <<_ACEOF
:
:
:
---------------------------------------------------------

So in the case of cross-compilation, strncmp() is always build...
