I finally got your program crosscompiled on my windows machine. But if I 
start it on the linux target, I get the output "not found". I think, I 
made something wrong, when I tried to resolve the library .so symlinks. 
Another problem was, that my ARM Linux uses uClibc and not libc, so the 
linker complaint about some missing references in cprt0. I made changes 
in cprt0.as and recompiled the rtl.

I need more time (and experience) to track this problem down.
