Thanks a lot for these pointers. They certainly got me going in the
right direction.
When I finally for the glibc version of the toolchain I was able to
build the hello-world app successfully.
My understanding of scratchbox is improving little by little.

Thanks,
Sean.

That tutorial maybe sadly a bit out of date.

There are older releases available in the download section at 
scratchbox.org. Click on the old releases link on the apophis page to 
get packages from earlier revisions. The package you're after can be 
found in [1].

There's one old toolchain in the directory as well (and also in the 
current release directory).

However, I think you should look in to the Codesourcery cs2008q3 uclinux

version, for example, for a more recent uclibc toolchain [2]. To import 
it inside Scratchbox, see the wiki on foreign toolchain howto [3].

That may be a symptom of basically anything. Configure is barfing due to

the fact that the test program it compiled and tried to run resulted in 
an exit code different from 0.

Compile a simple hello world program in your target and see if you can 
run that one. If not, there's probably something wrong with your target 
configuration.
