How can just adding the prefix to the compiler like that fix something?

Looking at the references to CROSS_COMPILE in tools/perf/Makefile:

-----------------------------------

# Define CROSS_COMPILE as prefix name of compiler if you want
# cross-builds.

<SNIP>

CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc
AR = $(CROSS_COMPILE)ar

-----------------------------------

Can you provide the make command line you're using that makes it work
for you with this patch?

Thanks,

- Arnaldo
