One more "me too" report:
There was probably something unusual in the last OS kernel update for Ubuntu 15.10 x64, which has caused some compiler tools to require re-installation.

I updated Ubuntu 15.10 kernel last week along other updates offered by the system, and after the kernel update I ran a command to purge old kernels, like I always do after kernel updates. At that point I noticed that exceptionally also a few of the build tools/prerequisities of Openwrt got uninstalled at the same time. Almost like there had been a forced dependency to the previous kernel version. Normally only the old kernel modules are purged, so this looked strange.

I re-installed the Openwrt prerequisities (gcc-multilib, flex, git-core, gettext, libssl-dev, ...). Not all of those needed re-installation, but some did. So some of them had been really uninstalled. Since then the things have been normal again.

Your situation pretty much matches what I would probably have seen if I had not re-installed the prerequisities.
Just try reinstalling the ~20 prerequisities for Openwrt and see if that helps.

I don't think that this has anything to do with Openwrt itself.

not even a distclean was able to solve the problem. I still have the issue.

    Yes, I agree it may be a problem related to an OS update because I
    actually did that.
    Meanwhile, why would the gcc verification fail?
    I'm using The multilib gnu compiler and it always worked until now..

        I had some really weird stuff happen very recently with regard to make
        on 2 mint boxes I use to compile openwrt.  a 'make clean' in
        scripts/config got me up and running again.  Never seen anything quite
        like it before!  I think it was an OS update that did it rather than
        anything openwrt.
