Hi guys,

I am trying to build a rom with generic defaults for ALIX (although the same error appears regardless of mainboard/chipset combination, with the exception of QEMU - that doesn't even start to build at all:

I suspect this might be related to the error I get when set to 'master' which looks like a binutils bug that was fixed post-packaging, My build machines run Slackwre 13.37.0 with binutils before the patch: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12726

Can anyone confim this is actually the problem and it will go away if I build a more recent binutils?

Thanks,
J
