AT91Bootstrap is not an open community project, so everybody keeps fixing the issues on their own without contributing things back, and Atmel isn't really maintaining it very actively. The upstream 1.16 version doesn't even build with EABI toolchains, and Buildroot has a patch to fix this. I'm afraid the build issue you had might be a problem in AT91Bootstrap that you have to find and fix. Of course, we're interested by the patch. Note that Atmel is working on a newer AT91Bootstrap version, available as part of their Android4Sam initiative. This version, labeled "3" is available at ftp://ftp.linux4sam.org/pub/Android4SAM/9m10g45/v1.1/patches/bootstrap30.tar.gz. I haven't tried it for now, but it uses kconfig for the configuration, so it's probably a bit better than the 1.16 that is packaged in Buildroot currently.
