[meta-freescale] glibc configure fails with e5500 / t1040 on master...

[Bob Cochran]

Hello,

I was trying to build a t1040-based image using most recent master, but 
glibc is failing during configure.  I went back and compared a 
successful build with sumo using glibc-2.27, but I'm scratching my head 
why it passes on sumo but fails on master.

Here is the log.do_configure:
