Let's elaborate a little... The :

/home/marino/cross-android/work/build/./gcc/as

is only a shell script created during configure and exec's the real
'as', the one which was found, probably '/usr/bin/as' which is an
assembler for the native 'x86_64-aux-dragonfly2.8' system, not for
the 'armv5-android-eabi' target!
