mkdir: missing operand
Try 'mkdir --help' for more information.
Simply suppressing the message isn't a good fix. Can you investigate
a bit more on why mkdir is failing and the architectures it is failing
on?
This change simply suppresses the error message and continues - Should
this error end the build process or not run mkdir to begin with by
checking why $(sort $(dir $(TEST_GEN_PROGS)))) results in an empty
string?
