--libdir, --bindir, --sbindir, can be nicely summarised with
"--prefix=/usr/php-arm".

That doesn't work, php is not a tool that generates arm code. You want
--host=arm-linux and --build=i386-linux, which can be summarised as
"arm-linux".

That's a nice recipe for failure. The configure script has to know what
the used tools are so it can fill them out in the Makefile. Telling
make later on that you want to use different tools usually fails.

This is my recipe that cross compiles 99% of all autoconf'ed packages
out there:
export CC=arm-linux-gcc
export CXX=arm-linux-g++
(export whatever other tools the configure script depends on, but
usually the C and C++ compiler will do)
./configure [flags] arm-linux
In the php case, you want the flags probably to be:
--prefix=/usr/php-arm --libexec=/usr/php-arm/libexec
--includedir=/usr/arm-linux/include
--oldincludedir=/usr/arm-linux/include
--with-apache=/usr/arm-linux/include
Note that you most probably don't need the --includedir and
--oldincludedir flags.
If the configure script doesn't recognise arm-linux as a valid target
architecture, you might try arm-unknown-linux-gnu.
make
make install
