CC libcurl for ARMv7

I am attempting to cross compile libcurl for ARMv7(Android) and I cannot seem to get it to compile.

I have the SDK and NDK with a standalone tool chain and CC already set up. Though while CC is set it breaks the compiler.

For example, I have my toolchain set in my bashrc like so:

export NDK=/home/anthony/android-ndk-r9b
export SYSROOT=$NDK/platforms/android-16/arch-arm
export CC="$NDK/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc-4.8 --sysroot=$SYSROOT"

If i leave CC uncommented, I recieve an error while trying to CC libcurl:

curl-7.46.0 $ ./configure$ prefix=/home/anthony/Documents/Ruby/androidSMS/Curl/curl-7.46.0/lib/curl 
--build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --host=arm-linux-gnueabi 
--target=arm-linux 
CC=/home/anthony/android-ndk-r9b/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc-4.8

checking whether the C compiler works... no

I have to open a new terminal after commenting CC out. unsetting CC will not work. Thats besides the point. Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong.

I wrote an ftp class instead of cross compiling libcurl for ARMv7. Closing this out.
