I've applied your patch, and removed the code that implements the
host-syslinux variant (which BTW was originally added by Arnout in
9baaa5b4a39145f4cc64c6bba1a6aa8cec48f00a).

Frank, syslinux upstream is now at version 6.x. Since you're using
syslinux, could you take care of updating the package in Buildroot to
match the latest upstream version?

Thanks,

Thomas
