vcos.h: No such file or directory

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but attempting to build on Indigo running on an x86_64 platform gives me this error:

myproject/src/overlay/src/raspicam/src/RaspiCamControl.cpp:32:33: fatal error: interface/vcos/vcos.h: No such file or directory

I have all the required packages installed. Are the ARM/Raspbian packages the only ones that provide the vcos headers?

If I run the identical commands on the Pi, it builds fine.

It would be nice to be able to build on x86_64 and then push the binaries to the Pi just for ease of testing and faster performance. Should I be able to build this on a non-Pi platform?

@chrisspen Is your problem solved?
Were you able to do it on a non-Pi platform?

Thanks

No, I abandoned my efforts to cross-compile. It doesn't appear to be possible, short of using a virtual machine.
