  CROSS_PREFIX=aarch64-linux-gnu- \
    CPPFLAGS=-I/home/alex/lsrc/qemu/risu.git/sve-headers/include \
    ../configure

    need this if you're not building on the target system

+Another useful flag is
+ CPPFLAGS= which specified pre-processor flags, usually -I statements

 Passing --static will build a statically linked binary which is useful
 if you don't want to mess around with a chroot to run the binary.
