The kernel configure step was broken by the sysroot poisoning in [1]. In linux-yocto.inc this was fixed by appending $TOOLCHAIN_OPTIONS to KERNEL_CC, TOOLCHAIN_OPTIONS containing the needed --sysroot arg.
However, [1] also breaks the yocto configure fragment generation: after parsing the fragments, when make is called on the merged file to fill in any missing symbols with default values. The call chain is: do_kernel_configme() -> configme -> merge_config.sh -> make KCONFIG_ALLCONFIG=$TMP_FILE This issue was uncaught until now because configme redirects all stdout and stderr to merge_log.txt prior to calling merge_configs.sh and there is no return value checking, so building continues and the silent error is ignored. Adding $TOOLCHAIN_OPTIONS to $CFLAGS before calling configme fixes this. TODO: In a future patch this kind of error should be made loud and cause the build to fail.
