  i *think* i mentioned earlier that the first failing package build
is ncurses-native:

  this appears to be related to the issues listed in this post
describing a mass rebuild of fedora packages with gcc-5.0.0:

https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2015-February/207549.html

particularly this:

"Main offender this time is probably the gnu11 change that entails
different inline semantics, enables some warnings by default, bumps
the __STDC_VERSION__, and so on.  Hopefully it won't take too long
till these packages catch on. Many packages were not prepared for the
new major version of GCC.  There's also been quite a lot of churn
because of the preprocessor now emitting linemarkers in the output
when the -P option is not turned on.  The C++ compiler now rejects
some code that it used to accept.  Furthermore, GCC 5 has a batch of
new warnings, which, combined with -Werror, caused some additional
failures."

  sure enough, down that page, ncurses and a bunch of other packages
are identified as having the issue:

"these packages failed to build because of the changes in the
preprocessor; gcc started to generate line directives to better detect
whether a macro tokens come from a system header - see
http://gcc.gnu.org/PR60723 The fix is to use the -P option if the code
isn't prepared to deal with such directives."

  i see that your oe-contrib repo has a newer version of binutils, but
not of ncurses, although your ncurses SRC_URI is different. anyway,
this is just what i've tripped over lately on my rawhide system.
