'make bash-dirclean; make bash' ends up with the same link failure as well.

Unfortunately, I don't have the luxury of disabling bash and changing
the scripts as some scripts in my application come from sources I do not
control.

In the short term, I'll just create a partition on my devel box with a
Ubuntu 8.10 installed and go back to that for building buildroot.

I filed a Bugzilla report under buildroot.
