We did not try this yet, so it's not a big surprise you run into
issues.

Which Linux distribution do you run on your build host? Remember that
the reference platform is Red Hat 7.3 (see the  "ELDK  Release  Build
Environment"  Application  Note  [1]), and Fedora Core 5 should work,
too.

So which binutils package is installed on your build host?
