I am having trouble cross-compiling fuse-exfat. GCC can not find my fuse library. I am running the build on a x64-64 machine and compiling for ARM.
As you can see here, both the include files and the library is there:

Running Configure does not give any errors.

What am I missing?
Based on the info here there's no way we can say for sure.
However, it's likely that the makefile sets the LDFLAGS and CFLAGS variables. Variables assigned in the makefile will take precedence over variables obtained from the environment so your variable assignments are ignored.
I recommend you try passing the variable assignments on the make command line, rather than through the environment:
$ make LDFLAGS="-L/opt/sysroot/usr/lib" CFLAGS="-I/opt/sysroot/usr/include"
(PS It's almost always a bad idea to build things and run make commands as root--in fact it's almost always a bad idea to do anything as root, except for things that require it)
