I am not getting this error on qemux86.

My build configuration:

BB_VERSION        = "1.29.0"
BUILD_SYS         = "x86_64-linux"
NATIVELSBSTRING   = "Fedora-23"
TARGET_SYS        = "i586-oe-linux"
MACHINE           = "qemux86"
DISTRO            = "nodistro"
DISTRO_VERSION    = "nodistro.0"
TUNE_FEATURES     = "m32 i586"
TARGET_FPU        = ""
meta              = "mhatle/rpm-5.4.16:004efb3aaa973dba030847c1c8218238f0cc68c5"

The local.conf is the stock one with buildhistory and package_rpm enabled.

Which compiler do you have enabled?  I'm building with the default 5.3.0 compiler.

Since I'm not reproducing the problem, I'd like to know what the difference in
configurations is.
