Thanks Matthias, that was the issue. Repeating *without* -u makes it work.
By the way, I also found that the toolchain build will fail if the directory name containing build.sh contains a dot. That is, if you do "cd /usr; mv src src.was; cd src.was; ./build.sh -O ../obj -T ../tools -U tools", it fails. I have not recorded the exact failure, but can do so if anyone is interested. In essence, some part of the build process derives a pathname of /usr/src./stuff, which of course fails. In general, I feel it's best if a build process is insensitive to the pathname of the build directory.
Thanks and regards,
