Please be more precise with how you configured.  That's not enough
information to say anything.

The sysroot, at least for GCC, is relocated at runtime iff it is a
subdirectory of $exec_prefix and it exists.  Using
$exec_prefix/$target_alias is not a good choice.  Then the compiler
will look for $target_alias/usr/include, not $target_alias/include.
