After deleting the build and distro directories I tried another make and
encountered two problems:
During the initrd building, the building of makedev failed due to the compiler
being -Werror and system() return value being ignored. I got past that with
the following patch. I'm sure this should rather be fixed elsewhere.

With that we get past initrd but rootfs build then fails with.

I really don't want to spend hours debugging all this building and I wonder
whether there is somewhere where I can just download a fresh set of
consistent bunch of binaries that work. All I really want to do is hack on
kernel/yaffs.
