  That looks like a problem with the RPi kernel. stddef.h doesn't exist within 
the kernel, it simply shouldn't be used. Well, it's Broadcom code so not really 
surprising that it's wrong...

  You could try to patch it out, send a pull request, and the update our defconfig.

  How about using one of the autobuilder toolchains? E.g. [1].
