[meta-freescale] [meta-fsl-arm] Can't build vlc

[Gary Thomas]

This seems to be a BSP issue as I can build vlc for any non-i.MX
target.

When I try to build vlc using this setup:
Build Configuration:
BB_VERSION        = "1.27.0"
BUILD_SYS         = "x86_64-linux"
NATIVELSBSTRING   = "Ubuntu-14.04"
TARGET_SYS        = "arm-poky-linux-gnueabi"
MACHINE           = "nitrogen6x"
DISTRO            = "poky"
DISTRO_VERSION    = "1.8+snapshot-20150408"
TUNE_FEATURES     = "arm armv7a vfp neon callconvention-hard cortexa9"
TARGET_FPU        = "vfp-neon"
meta              = "master:9e4adec98db325112ca7a8b9dd95722d4d0ab642"
meta-fsl-arm      = "master:bfe01a0ebde407086f4a7710ea165c6beff310d7"
meta-fsl-arm-extra = "master:49843fbd4cdfcdd37ad191dbf4bdc63e06cf1e0e"
meta-oe
meta-gnome
meta-multimedia   = "master:df6c7b1279790d27ebfd58fbdfbac89bde5782ec"
meta-yocto
meta-yocto-bsp    = "master:9e4adec98db325112ca7a8b9dd95722d4d0ab642"

conf/bblayers.conf:
BBLAYERS ?= " \
   /local/poky-cutting-edge/meta \
   /local/poky-cutting-edge/meta-fsl-arm \
   /local/poky-cutting-edge/meta-fsl-arm-extra \

   /local/meta-openembedded.github/meta-multimedia \
   /local/poky-cutting-edge/meta-yocto \
   /local/poky-cutting-edge/meta-yocto-bsp \
   "

conf/local.conf  (just the parts I added):
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_jpeg = "libjpeg-turbo"
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_jpeg-native = "libjpeg-turbo-native"
LICENSE_FLAGS_WHITELIST ?= "commercial_gst-fluendo-mp3 \
                             commercial_gst-openmax \
                             commercial_gst-plugins-ugly \
                             commercial_gst-ffmpeg \
                             commercial_gstreamer1.0-libav \
                             commercial_lame \
                             commercial_libav \
                             commercial_libpostproc \
                             commercial_mplayer2 \
                             commercial_x264 \

                             commercial_libomxil \
                             commercial_mpeg2dec \
                             commercial_qmmp"
MACHINE = "nitrogen6x"
ACCEPT_FSL_EULA = "1"

I get this error:
| arm-poky-linux-gnueabi-libtool:   error: cannot find the library '' or unhandled argument '-DLINUX=1'

...
ERROR: Task 6 (/local/meta-openembedded.github/meta-multimedia/recipes-multimedia/vlc/vlc_2.1.4.bb, do_compile) failed with exit code '1'

Full compile log is at http://www.mlbassoc.com/poky/vlc-log.do_compile2

Curious thing is I can build vlc for any other target I've tried,
just not for the i.MX6.  For example, just change to "ls1021atwr"
and it will work.

What's so special (broken) about i.MX6?
