Everything is cross compiled. Since x86 is little endian, I don't
cross compile big endian data files, like locale and timezone. You
can rebuild glibc natively to get all those data files.

It may be the endian issue. Please recompile cracklib natively and let
me know if it fixes the problem for you.
