it looks as though the win-x11a.c diagnostics relate to cascading
parse errors introduced by
the errors in the included x11-keysym2ucs.c file. I don't understand
the errors on line 823:

x11-keysym2ucs.c:823  { 0x20ac, 0x20ac }, /*
EuroSign € EURO SIGN */
unless it suddenly has it in for the Euro too, like everyone else, ha
ha. The keysymtab array
being initialised has bounds [], so there isn't any particular limit
on that.  The more serious
error

> ../port/x11-keysym2ucs.c:827: error: expected ')' before 'keysym'

suggests that your system's X11 headers aren't declaring the KeySym type.
On my Ubuntu system, KeySym is defined by X.h (by typedef XID KeySym).
If there isn't such a thing in your cross-compilation environment, you
might try adding it,
just to see how much further you get.

Having said that, I see that the output refers to
/usr/include/X11/Xlib.h in one diagnostic, and
that suggests that you aren't using the X11 environment of a
cross-compilation environment.
I don't know whether that matters. I don't know what other people
doing cross-compilation for ARM
have used.

If you're running qtopia linux on the board, you really need the
contents of that distribution for cross-compilation
(the include files and the libraries, in particular). Normally the
development boards come with a cd/dvd containing
the software actually running on the board (usually linux is patched
somehow), or there's a download site.

which particular board have you got, out of curiosity?
