Thank you for applying the patch, but without setting CC_FOR_BUILD it does nothing (intentionally). I wrote: > Then it fails running hexdump.exe.

You have a number of options here: export CC_FOR_BUILD=cc or include /usr/share/dpkg/buildtools.mk export CC_FOR_BUILD ?= cc or set CC_FOR_BUILD=CC via your BUILD_FLAGS but without any setting, the patch does nothing.
