Like the utilities, it is meant to run on the host machine, hence must
be built using the host toolchain.

Tested with the following defconfig:

BR2_x86_64=y
BR2_x86_atom=y
BR2_DL_DIR="$(HOME)/src"
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_DOWNLOAD=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_URL="http://autobuild.buildroot.org/toolchains/tarballs/br-x86-64-core2-full-2017.05-1078-g95b1dae.tar.bz2"
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_GCC_6=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_HEADERS_4_4=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_LOCALE=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_EXTERNAL_CXX=y
BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_ROOT_PASSWD="root"
BR2_TARGET_GENERIC_GETTY_PORT="ttyS1"
BR2_ENABLE_LOCALE_WHITELIST=""
BR2_ROOTFS_OVERLAY="board/technologic/ts5x00/fs-overlay"
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL=y
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_USE_CUSTOM_CONFIG=y
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_CONFIG_FILE="board/pc/linux.config"
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_INSTALL_TARGET=y
BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_EXT2=y
BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_EXT2_4=y
BR2_TARGET_SYSLINUX=y
BR2_TARGET_SYSLINUX_MBR=y
BR2_TARGET_SYSLINUX_EFI=y

Notice that I did not actualy use a ts5x00 board, just used its
defconfig as a base to create my configuration.
