I came over the same issue when I tried to cross compile APR for a powerpc system. The real problem is, that despite configure allows to override ac_cv_file__dev_zero=yes if you have it on your target system, there's a non overridable run time check if mmap works with /dev/zero that will simply reset ac_cv_file__dev_zero=no when cross-compiling is detected. I had to hack the configure script to skip this test, introducing another variable ac_cv_mmap_dev_zero_works that allows that explicitely. IMHO this should be corrected in the autoconf sources for configure, but I have no experience with autoconf. Can anyone tell how to bring this to the config script, resp. to the source of it?
