My guess is that something expands $(CROSS_COMPILE) before make
silentoldconfig generates include/config/auto.conf (which is where the
makefile reads the CONFIG_* variables from). Tiago, can you try changing
the $(shell ...) line to
CROSS_COMPILE := $(shell ls include/config/auto.conf >&2; \
echo "CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE $(CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE) >&2; \
grep CONFIG_CROSS_COMPILE .config | cut -d'"' -f2)
and tell us what it prints?
Thanks,
Michal
