Cross compile PHP [closed]

Question

I have downloaded the PHP 5.4.0 source, extracted it and moved into the source folder.

I do a configure with:

./configure --build=x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu --host=arm-linux-uclibcgnueabi --prefix=/usr/arm/www CC="arm-linux-uclibcgnueabi-gcc --sysroot=/toolchains/gnu_cortex-a9_tools/"  --disable-libxml --disable-dom  --without-iconv --without-openssl --disable-simplexml --disable-xml --disable-xmlreader --disable-xmlwriter --without-pear --without-sqlite3 --disable-pdo --without-pdo-sqlite --disable-phar  --with-config-file-path=/etc/

Followed by

make

no errors, everything runs fine. Next i do a make install.

make install

Again everything runs fine. i move it to the target platform and run

/usr/arm/www/bin/php -v
PHP 5.4.0 (cli) (built: Aug 15 2012 16:07:41) 
Copyright (c) 1997-2012 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.4.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2012 Zend Technologies

I test a simple home page with my webserver and directly with php.

<?php echo "hello" ?>
# php index.php
hello

it works as expected. next i test:

<?php
$output = shell_exec('ls -lart');
echo "<pre>$output</pre>";
?>

oh noes~

# php shell.php 

Segmentation fault

I teset another script:

#!/bin/php
<?php

echo "hello";
$handle = fopen("info.txt", "r");
echo $handle;
?>

Same result:

# php index.php 
helloSegmentation fault

do i have a php.ini?

# /usr/arm/www/bin/php --ini

yes, and no disabled functions. testing strace /usr/arm/www/bin/php index.php

the file info.txt exists and it got premission to read/write to it.

if i run the index.php through gdb it gives me:

    in /home/maiden/Downloads/php-5.4.0/Zend/zend.h

gdb gives me this from shell.php Starting program: /usr/arm/www/bin/php shell.php

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

zend_do_fcall_common_helper_SPEC (execute_data=0x2ab76040) at /home/maiden/Downloads/php-5.4.0/Zend/zend.h:391
391 in /home/maiden/Downloads/php-5.4.0/Zend/zend.h

zend.h is located in /usr/arm/www/include/php/Zend/ obviously something went wrong during cross compilation. what have i missed? i do not find any configure flag to correct this and creating a symlink to the desired location removes the gdb output but php still segfaults.

Thanks for any help!

Update2

re-run valgrind with memcheck, got about the same output as before but this was new:

php: can't resolve symbol '__libc_freeres'

Update3

While valgrind have failed me, i continued with gdb, i created the folder /home/maiden/..etc on my target system and copied over the content of my php/include folder and re-run gdb. now i get this error message:

(gdb) run index.php 
Starting program: /bin/php index.php
hello
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

warning: Source file is more recent than executable.
391     return --pz->refcount__gc;

this is very similar to what sixeightzero wrote in the comments yesterday. I have now tried PHP version 5.3.5, 5.4.0, 5.4.5 same error on all.
