Interesting!  I've seen the same thing (on Fedora, not sure distro is
relevant).  I tracked it down to dependency files (*.d) in
tools/build/features/ containing a reference to a sigset.h header which
didn't exist :S  I did git clean -xdf to fix my tree.

Thanks for testing and sorry about the breakage!
