Is there any chance that this issue might be somehow related to some
'make' parameter such as "make EFI_BUILD=1 ARCH=i386" (either, or both
of them, or similars, or any other one), which we mildly discussed
during 2015Nov?
I cannot help but wonder whether executing a 'make spotless' before
executing the final 'make' could generate a different result /
message(s) (considering that the Syslinux binaries were built more than
once while testing).
Completely unrelated to my comments above... Some patches that "might"
give some clue to some knowledgeable developer (let's hope):
gnu-efi, syslinux: Support gcc < 4.7
cgit.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/meta/recipes-devtools/sys
linux/syslinux?id=90e7cfebc6a9ac4b229b45c6a7dc95218efe55c5
syslinux: Dont bypass gcc driver for dependency generation options
cgit.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/meta/recipes-devtools/sys
linux/syslinux?id=f3ac32e0bc83d7aeea3e84258c258c2bb6dab44e
syslinux: Set LD to avoid using build host ld
cgit.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/meta/recipes-devtools/sys
linux/syslinux_6.03.bb?id=c4897af85eace49e3c27aebc1448227105286e30
Regarding "latest and greatest", there are several sections of (GPL)
code being used in Syslinux that might benefit from some updated
versions (some of them have not received updates in Syslinux's code
since 2010).
