This shouldn't be required.
bison and flex were required to avoid some warnings in the past while
compiling the dtc submodule ... but I thought we got rid of the problem
at one point in time, so this can be removed now, indeed.

This seems to be a meta packae that pulls in other
misc toolchain packages. Please list the pieces we
need explicitly instead.
Looking at the "Depends" list on
https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/package/v3.3/main/x86/build-base there are
only 6 dependencies and we need most of those for QEMU anyway, so I
think it is ok to keep build-base here.

Right.

Is this really needed ? We don't install kernel-headers on other

I tried a build without this package, and it works fine indeed.

Seems like it also can be dropped.

I can remove the superfluous packages when picking up the patch, no need
to respin just because of this.

You can refer to my post earlier this January for a "minimal" Alpine
Linux build, if you wish.
My goal was to find the smallest set of packages possible without
passing any explicit configure flags.
I wonder if it's worth having layered "core build" and "test build"
images so that we can smoke test the minimalistic build from time to
time -- I seem to recall Dan posting information about a dependency
management tool for Dockerfiles, but I admit I didn't look too closely
at what problem that solves, exactly.
