Comment (by rwbarton):

 Hmm, so that's in libffi. Check how it was configured (`libffi/build/arm-
 unknown-linux-gnueabi/config.log` should tell you) and see whether
 anything looks amiss there. Perhaps you needed to clean more before re-
 configuring (`make distclean` should probably be enough, but `make
 maintainer-clean` is the ultimate hammer).
