[yocto] [prelink-cross] error while loading shared libraries: ld-linux.so.3

Hey, now I understand it :-) Thank you!

I need to specify the sysroot and explicitly tell prelink which
libraries to prelink:

PATH=/usr/local/sbin prelink --verbose
--root=/home/developer/workspace/eclipse/prelink-cross-example/arm-2012.03/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/libc
--cache-file=/etc/cache/prelink.cache --config-file=/etc/prelink.conf
--ld-library-path="/usr/local/lib;/lib;" -h /usr/local/bin/hello
/lib/libc.so.6 /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 /lib/ld-2.15.so


This will produce the following output:

Assigned virtual address space slots for libraries:
/lib/ld-linux.so.3                                           41000000-4102a968

/usr/local/lib/libworld.so                                   411b8000-411c06d0

I put all the code on github, in case somebody has the same issues
(make sure to checkout both branches 'master' and 'shared-library'):

Thank you for the great help.
