According to what you find in the 'configure' script, only cpus
matching armv7* are expected.
It looks like in your setup, the configure script is guessing 'arm',
and that does not match armv7*

Either you manage to persuade configure to consider your system as an
armv7*, using a valid --host=....... argument.
E.g. something like --host=armv7-unknown-linux

Alternatively you could try to 'patch' configure script
so as to replace the pattern armv7* by e.g. arm* or arm
and hope that the rest will work properly.
