I just downloaded it.  Once again, it's a really nice piece of work.  
Congratulations! - and thanks to you and the rest of the people who made 
this release of Buildroot a reality.

Peter - you are right about this.  I modified the Buildroot .config to 
so that BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE=no, and the build process continues on Mac OS 
X.  However, I then encountered another error.  Apparently the gcc 
makefile believes that the host is Linux, so host-linux.c is being 
compiled instead of host-darwin.c.

Here's the output of the most recent error:
