Although I haven't seen and don't understand that warning message, I
recommend that when you install your second OpenPKG instance (test or
whatever), that you generate a script of everything from the very start.
Something like:

  $ script opkgtest.txt
  $ sh openpkg-1.3.1-1.3.1.src.sh --prefix=/opkg --user=opkg --group=opkg
  $ exit (to finally leave the script)

At this point grep the script to see if you get the same warning. Then start
installing packages to your new instance (like gcc...), but this time do
them one by one. First 'make', then 'binutils', then 'gcc'.

The reason you do it this way is to diagnose and better localize the
problem. Maybe these warnings only appear after binutils is installed and
takes over the role of assembler and linker? Or maybe they exist right from
the start? Maybe they only exist when the native Red Hat gcc is used (check
your .rpmmacros file and check your script files after gcc is finally
built).

Good luck.
