Can you do:

	make clean
	rm .config
	make menuconfig / exit / save
	env > buildroot-fails.env
	make 2>&1 | tee buildroot-fails.log
	cp output/toolchain/uClibc-0.9.33.2/.config buildroot-fails.uClibc.config

And then put somewhere online (do *NOT* send them by e-mail on the
list, it will be too large) the buildroot-fails.env,
buildroot-fails.log and buildroot-fails.uClibc.config files.

I have just built the default Buildroot configuration on two Ubuntu
12.04 machines, with zero problem.

Thanks,

Thomas
