this was also reported in 
http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/busybox/2023-January/090113.html

it's caused by having a cpu with AVX512 (the github runners do) but not sha_ni,
and the code that checks it is broken and misdetects sha_ni support when avx512
exists. the github runners don't have sha_ni, so it breaks exactly there.

quite the rare combo :)

i feel this was reported before, but apparently not outside an irc channel..
