Use "=" and not ":=". Like this: -LIBGCC := $(shell $(CC) $(ARC_LIBGCC) $(cflags-y) --print-libgcc-file-name) +LIBGCC = $(shell $(CC) $(ARC_LIBGCC) $(cflags-y) --print-libgcc-file-name) This would defer the evaluation until we actually reference the variable, and thus I think it will not trigger for a defconfig build. I could not reproduce the problem here so I am not sure this has any effect though...
