Thanks for the log files. From a quick look, there is one obvious
error, the linker can't find libbsd most probably because it is not
there. So, you need to remove the -lbsd option from ptpd-2-1.cfg file
LIBS value. Another thing to be noted is that there are a few errors
due to failed version checking of the sparc-rtems5-gcc, this can
probably ignored for now if removing the -lbsd option fixes your
issue.
