Ok, that could be the indicator. I will try later today. The only thing
that still worries me is that I had originally reported the error months
ago - was binutils changed that long ago?
Either way, I will try. Could this also be added to makebuildroot-test.mk?

Thanks Kai and JonY, and all the best,
