To me it sounds as if somehow a space has sneaked into the definition of
BUILD_DIR - E.G. that line has a long list of BUILD_DIR/mtd_orig/<blah>.

Could you add something like this to mtd.mk and run make test:

diff --git a/package/mtd/mtd-utils/mtd.mk b/package/mtd/mtd-utils/mtd.mk
index a686661..3049f8e 100644
--- a/package/mtd/mtd-utils/mtd.mk
+++ b/package/mtd/mtd-utils/mtd.mk
@@ -20,6 +20,9 @@ MTD_NAME:=mtd-utils-$(MTD_VERSION)
 MKFS_JFFS2 := $(MTD_HOST_DIR)/mkfs.jffs2
 SUMTOOL := $(MTD_HOST_DIR)/sumtool
 
+test:
+       echo "MTD_DIR='$(MTD_DIR)'"
+

Here it gives:

echo "MTD_DIR='/home/peko/source/buildroot/output/build/mtd_orig'"
MTD_DIR='/home/peko/source/buildroot/output/build/mtd_orig'
