DirectFB has problems with cross compiling. You'll need to use a chroot
to get it to compile properly. I've had it find the cross compiled
freetype stuff, but linking then becomes a problem. It is pretty
complex. I saw something in the new versions that have a configure flag
of sysroot-dir or something that may solve it. However, the only way
I've gotten cross-compiled DirectFB together is with a chroot.
