But that has to be run to test. What if anything fails because a program
got removed? That is, what happened.

Busybox build successfully several times. Than I started to remove some
stuff from that system which I expected not to be used (and I really
never used od visibly in over 20 years) ... and busybox continued to
build without failure ... only after I moved the executable to the final
location on the new maintenance/emergency/recovery system I noticed the
segmentation fault as I requested a usage information ... so what has
gone wrong? ... primarily I expected some damage of my new recovery
system ... than the question was, if any modifications to busybox
produced that error or if an update from 1.17.1 to 1.17.2 solve the
problem ... but problem still remained ... and I wouldn't have recalled
your script in that situation.

In my eyes such a script isn't bad to test if it is principally possible
to compile busybox in that environment ... but it isn't really required.
I just expect a build to abort unsuccessful, if ANYTHING goes bad, that
is not handled. Nothing more but not less.
