Yes, it may be an error, or it may be that the build-id was specified 
when the elf file was created.

I tried ld can specify a build-id larger than 160-bit hexadecimal digits:

   $ ld -o test test.o 
--build-id=0x62363266373430613439613534633666326432323334653665623530396566343938656130663039
   $ readelf -n test

   Displaying notes found in: .note.gnu.build-id
     Owner                 Data size       Description
     GNU                  0x00000028       NT_GNU_BUILD_ID (unique build

       Build ID: 
62363266373430613439613534633666326432323334653665623530396566343938656130663039

All in all, it feels like a rare scene :)
