That's true but the cc-option checker should use -mapcs-32 if it is
available, otherwise it will fall back to -mabi=apcs-gnu. It looks
like your compiler doesn't support the first option either. In this
case, I'm not sure it worked before Peter's patch. What CPU is it?

You could try the following in your config.mk but you should
investigate why -mapcs-32 doesn't work:

PLATFORM_CPPFLAGS +=$(call cc-option,-mapcs-32,$(call cc-option,-mabi=apcs-gnu,))
