Or better, this horrible mess of __UCLIBC__ and HAS_NOMMU macros should
be replaced by a proper autoconf check testing for the availability of
fork().

I don't have push access.

The error wasn't caught by the autobuilders, but by the automated build
logic we use for http://toolchains.bootlin.com to build toolchains for
a wide range of CPU architectures.
The failure was
https://gitlab.com/free-electrons/toolchains-builder/-/jobs/77021057,
and the Buildroot configuration being built was:
BR2_m68k=y
BR2_m68k_cf5208=y
BR2_WGET="wget --passive-ftp -nd -t 3 --no-check-certificate"
BR2_HOST_DIR="/opt/m68k-coldfire--uclibc--bleeding-edge-2018.06-1"
BR2_GNU_MIRROR="http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu"
BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_14=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_LOCALE=y
BR2_PTHREAD_DEBUG=y
BR2_BINUTILS_VERSION_2_30_X=y
BR2_GCC_VERSION_8_X=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_CXX=y
BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_GDB=y
BR2_GDB_VERSION_8_1=y
BR2_INIT_NONE=y
# BR2_PACKAGE_BUSYBOX is not set
BR2_PACKAGE_GDB=y
# BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_TAR is not set
Note that with Buildroot's latest master, this configuration will build
fine, because we already merged the fix for the fork/vfork issue.
Best regards,
Thomas Petazzoni
