[Buildroot] problem compiling lighttpd (pcre problem)

[Richard]

hey

i have finally got everything i want to compile, except for lighttpd.
the error message given is :

 skipping incompatible /usr/lib/libpcre.so when searching for -lpcre
/dns323/uclibc/buildroot/build_arm/staging_dir/usr/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-linux-uclibc/4.2.4/../../../../arm-linux-uclibc/bin/ld:
cannot find -lpcre

this occurs whether i select lighttpd with pcre support or not. pcre
itself compiles fine, but i cannot see where it has put libpcre.so, it
does not appear to be in the staging dir or target dir.

any ideas?
