Hi Anders,

I see something similar but in the end it works. Despite the name, I
also get perf.cpython-311-x86_64-linux-gnu.so generated in my build, but
it's actually an arm binary.

For me I'm using python3.10, and the x86 config options don't include
-fcf-protection which is probably why it can compile successfully with
the arm compiler.

It looks like your assumption is correct and it's not using
$(CROSS_COMPILE)python3-config but just python3-config. The answer to
how to fix it is probably to start hacking at the makefiles, if PYTHON
and PYTHON_CONFIG don't work either.

James
