[yocto] binutils failing in FIDO branch

[Paul Eggleton]

What I think Martin hasn't mentioned here (but did on IRC) is this is binutils 
for the target machine, not host/cross. I would assume it's somehow related to 
the target being built for. Martin, can you provide any details on that which 
might help others to reproduce the issue?

Cheers,
Paul
