Fair enough, but a machine reboot wasn't needed.  The actual problem came from
this recent commit:
    commit 08a54713acf424f45d8588c5c149a6053c9ac9c5

      u-boot.inc: Enable out-of-tree builds

This change broke some FSL specific code (in meta-fsl-arm) that expected to
run in the GIT tree and not a separate 'build' directory - patch already sent.

Sorry for the noise (and blaming the GCC update which otherwise has been very unpainful)
