Yes, you are sending HTML mails via using an MTA (free.fr) which is so
badly maintained, it rejects valid emails as spam.

Please switch to better email provider, learn not use HTML in emails on
mailing lists or you better quit this list.

The latter is your mistake. Don't use --program-prefix. The rtems
makefiles are not designed to use it and are getting confused if you do
so, because there is no need to do so.

If your toolchain had been build correctly, and if your PATH is set up
correctly things will work out of the box, without --program-prefix
