CMake can't correctly configure the latest code because of an issue with
cross-compilation of pthreads:
https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/issues/16920
# Link pthread
set(CMAKE_THREAD_PREFER_PTHREAD ON)
-if(${CMAKE_VERSION} VERSION_LESS "3.1.0")
+if(${CMAKE_VERSION} VERSION_LESS "3.1.0" OR CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING)
# Needed as long as we support CMake 2.8 for Ubuntu 14.04,
# which does not support the recommended Threads::Threads target.
# https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v2.8.12/cmake.html#module:FindThreads
+ # Also needed when cross-compiling to work around
