Well, this worked for me with Samba 3.4.4 or thereabouts around March
2010 and later.

You would be better off to tell us:

1. What tool chain you are using?
2. What version of Samba you are trying to cross compile?
3. What specific problem you are seeing?

It really was a matter of simply making sure that the bin directory
for the tool chain was in my path, running configure with the correct
arg to select the tool chain and then running make.
