espeak fails to cross compile. It seems to try to use the main compiler instead of the cross-compiler during the instalation phase of the build. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.

Thanks for submitting your cross-compile fix! Assigning to our espeak maintainers.
Actually, the makefile is slightly inefficient. It is building libespeak.so twice: once in the build phase, and once in the compile phase. The action of the all: rule renames libespeak.so. It isn't available under that name when we run make install. A simple fix is to convert the move into a copy. See attached. Perhaps someone else could do better with this makefile.
Created attachment 265877 [details, diff] espeak-1.44.05-fix-makefile.patch Fix for an inefficiency in the makefile.
This is fixed in 1.45.01. I did not use your patch however, because the issue was with the name of the shared library and the symbolic links not being set up correctly. Thanks for the report.
