Don't try to cross-compile nginx unless you understand what are 
you doing and ready handle miscompiled results; nginx does not 
support cross-compilation.

Use native compilation instead.  That is, compile nginx on an 
ARM7L host - either on the host you are planning to use it on, or 
in a virtual machine.

There should no problems with native compilation, just a usual 
"./configure && make" will do the trick (see 
http://nginx.org/en/docs/configure.html for details).
