devel: kodi_18 vs mipsel

Hi,

kodi_18 is still failing on vuduo2 (and probably on vusolo2 and vusolose as well).

With the latest changes and fixes kodi spits out this crashlog:

warning: GDB can't find the start of the function at 0x7fabe467.

    GDB is unable to find the start of the function at 0x7fabe467
and thus can't determine the size of that function's stack frame.
This means that GDB may be unable to access that stack frame, or
the frames below it.
    This problem is most likely caused by an invalid program counter or
stack pointer.
    However, if you think GDB should simply search farther back
from 0x7fabe467 for code which looks like the beginning of a
function, you can increase the range of the search using the `set
heuristic-fence-post' command.

################# LOG FILE ##################

Logfile not found in the usual place.
Please attach it separately.

Now to rule out the differences with other distros:

- toolchain seems the same, verify again...

- version of ancillary utils (libfmt, libmicrohttpd, libnfs, etc)

- different egl patch,  outstanding this diff: 

I have been suggested to totally rule out gold linker, not only for kodi.

I'll probably try a rebuild forcing bfd.

Cheers
