0000778: Error during compilation of readelf in uClibc using buildroot on cygwin host

Description

Hello, I am using buildroot under cygwin and I get an error during the compilation of readelf in uclibc about conflicting elf defines:

gcc ../utils/readelf.c -o ../utils/readelf.host -Wl,-s -O2 -Wall -include ../include/elf.h
In file included from /usr/include/elf.h:18,
from ../utils/readelf.c:41:
/usr/include/sys/elf32.h:38: error: conflicting types for 'Elf32_Addr'
./../include/elf.h:48: error: previous declaration of 'Elf32_Addr' was here
/usr/include/sys/elf32.h:40: error: conflicting types for 'Elf32_Off'
./../include/elf.h:52: error: previous declaration of 'Elf32_Off' was here
/usr/include/sys/elf32.h:42: error: conflicting types for 'Elf32_Word'
...
../utils/readelf.c:373: warning: implicit declaration of function `list_needed_libraries'
make[1]: *** [../utils/readelf.host] Error 1
make: *** [/usr/src/buildroot/build_arm_nofpu/staging_dir/lib/libc.a] Error 2

In addition, running make after this error doesn't retry to build readelf.
Attached is my buildroot configuration.

Notes
(0001305) blurgk 04-18-06 02:32	The solution to this pronlem is in this bug report, which has been closed: http://bugs.busybox.net/view.php?id=816 [^]

(0001306) blurgk 04-18-06 02:55	Ignore my previous message, the error is still present.

(0001686) vapier 10-06-06 23:02	although the real solution is to stop using a craptastic environment like cygwin, we dont actually need to include elf.h in these files as the makefile will handle the proper elf.h for us
