The ncftp build process tries to build and run a small program called
ccdv to beautify the build process output. If it manages to build and
run it, then it uses it.
Unfortunately, this doesn't work well when the target architecture is
close to the host architecture, but not exactly the same. Because both
architectures are close to each other, the test run of ccdv succeeds,
but real use of ccdv during ncftp build process causes an Illegal
instruction issue.
This for example happens with the CodeSourcery AMD64 toolchain, on a
build machine running an i7-4600U, and has been detected in the
autobuilders since the CodeSourcery AMD64 toolchain was upgraded at
the end of January:

The issue was also reported by Christopher Arguin back in July 2016:
http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2016-July/168026.html
and at the time, we identified that simply disabling the ccdv tool, by
passing --disable-ccdv, was enough to solve the issue. But Christopher
never submitted the patch, so the problem remained unfixed.
Therefore, we pass --disable-ccdv to the configure script, which
fixes:

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC. If you would like to contribute patches, please read https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
