You can also try to build it manually:

g++ -o v4l2-compliance -DNO_LIBV4L2 v4l2-compliance.cpp v4l2-test-debug.cpp v4l2-test-input-output.cpp v4l2-test-controls.cpp v4l2-test-io-config.cpp v4l2-test-formats.cpp v4l2-test-buffers.cpp
v4l2-test-codecs.cpp v4l2-test-colors.cpp v4l2-test-media.cpp v4l2-test-subdevs.cpp media-info.cpp v4l2-info.cpp -I../.. -I../../include -I../common

(replace g++ with your cross compiler)

Hopefully that will work since 1.12.3 is way too old.

Hans
