[LEDE-DEV] Can't build gcc (initial) on Ubuntu 16.04

[Philip Prindeville]

I dug into this… Problem was with CONFIG_EXTRA_OPTIMIZATION having “-fno-plt” in it.

This was being passed into the ‘gcc’ that was being used to bootstrap gcc.

Wondering if that’s not a bug.

Shouldn’t the build of the cross-gcc ignore target flags?
