Hi

I assume your host's /bin/sh is not bash.
ubuntu default

ls -al /bin/sh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2010-04-02 01:25 sh -> dash

I have bumped into similar problems with buildroot.

Is there a serious downside to linking /bin/sh to bash ?

While you're at it, I'd suggest to bump the versions for the required
cross-build environment as well, as it noticably improves stability of the
firmware images built by it (still not perfectly, but better).

ar9170.fw: update cross-toolchain.

Updating the toolchain improves stability of the built firmware images
significantly.

* gcc-4.4.4
* binutils-2.20.1
