Oh, maybe you did; I didn't see any reply to my original problem report,
and I didn't see the patch sent to the list (maybe I missed it?)

So I assumed it wasn't yet fixed, TBH I don't usually build cross-fs
that way so hadn't actually retested, sorry.  Seems like it should
be fine now, thanks.

As for Andreas' comment:

my problem was actually during the RPM packaging, so a slightly different
situation.
