[syslog-ng] Cross-compile problem with path in 3.2.4

[Ulrich Prinz]

Hi!

I cross compiled syslog-ng 3.2.4 for my ARM board. I called ./configure 
with the usual --host, --prefix and --exec-prefix options. Then I ran 
make with DESTDIR to my cross target directory.
I moved everything to my ARM target and syslog-ng starts up. While it 
locates and loads the configuration files properly, there is a problem 
with the modules:

I tried calling syslog-ng --module-path=/lib/syslog-ng too, but I get 
the same result,

Any idea to get around that would be appreciated :)

Best Regards and thanks in advance
