You're trying to build the system emulation and tools statically
linked. This isn't really very well supported -- the --static
option is really intended for the linux-user emulators
(--target-list=arm-linux-user). I recommend dropping
--static.

Interesting, I wonder why we do that tests compile so
early. In any case, the problem here is that your build
environment doesn't have the static libraries for gthread
and glib. (It probably has the dynamic library build
environment, which is why configure didn't complain, but
if you need to do a static build you need the static libs.)
