 Thank you for the quick response.
 
 I've tryed to analyze it a bit better and it seems that what happens
 here (but also previously without setting HOST) is that BUILD is
 different to HOST and instead of the branch triggered in
 ${WRKSRC}/buildsystem/makefiles/Makefile.tools:79 the
 ${WRKSRC}/buildsystem/makefiles/Makefile.tools:112 is executed (where
 /bin/which is hardcoded and it seems that there are also other possible
 GCC-isms).
 The simple and less intrusive way to - finally and hopefully - fix it is
 to also add the BUILD variable in the same way we defined the HOST
 variable:
 
  MAKE_ENV+=3D	BUILD=3D"${MACHINE_GNU_ARCH}--${LOWER_OPSYS}"
  MAKE_ENV+=3D	HOST=3D"${MACHINE_GNU_ARCH}--${LOWER_OPSYS}"
 
 
 Please let us know if it will fixes it!
 Ciao,
