I've bootstrapped EB 2.9.0 and I want to build the latest foss toolchain
foss-2016.09. Unfortunately, the download of GCC 6.2.0 fails:
# eb foss-2016.09.eb -r

I can download the gcc tarball without problems from the site
http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/gnu/gcc/gcc-6.2.0/
In the logfile there are lots of errors, just an example:

So there would seem to be some problem with the GCCcore-6.2.0.eb file.
How can we fix the error?
Thanks,
Ole
