Cross compiling build instructions

Hello,

I am trying to cross-compile the subversion library for Android using
the Android NDK. I have the toolchain properly set up, I think, but
I'm getting a strange error during `./configure`:

```
checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking host system type... configure: error: /bin/bash
build/config.sub --prefix=/_install/armeabi-v7a/subversion failed
configure: WARNING: cache variable ac_cv_host contains a newline
```

I'm not sure how to interpret this error message. Here is how I'm
running the configure command:

```
./configure --host --prefix=/_install/armeabi-v7a/subversion
--with-zlib=/_install/armeabi-v7a/zlib
```

I dug around in the subversion tarball for instructions more specific
to building in a cross-compiled environment, but I did not find
anything. Would the developers be so kind as to guide me to the
information required to get a working build?

My goal is to compile static libraries for the SVN client library so I
can check out code on an ARM device from my own C++ code base. Thanks
in advance.
