Bash does not configure in job control when cross-compiling. You can remove the JOB_CONTROL_MISSING define from config.h and try building without it, but there's no guarantee that the necessary capabilities are present on the target system. The macro you partially quoted above encapsulates the required functionality. If building without JOB_CONTROL_MISSING defined doesn't result in a binary with job control working, the tests in the macro give you a hint about where to look.
