Use 2.9.5. Yes, your compilation options were fine.

It should happen automatically. What are the actual problems you see?

No. The cross-compiler will look in $PREFIX/arm-linux/include and this is
where you should put the headers.

Yes.

No, you probably don't want it. Yes, it really does need the header files.
The easy way to stop it building is just to delete it from your source tree
before running configure.
