I would normally build a x86_64-native-linu= xapp-gcc, clang and icc or a different config all together.

The multiple build is not supported anymore. It was only building with the default configuration. If you want to test various builds, I suggest to use this script: =09scripts/test-build.sh =09http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk/commit/?id=3Dcd31ca579c If you just want to compile, it is simple: =09make config T=3Dx86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc O=3Dmy-gcc-build =09make O=3Dmy-gcc-build Note: the documentation was updated when doing this change. If you think something is missing, please comment.
