I am not sure as well. It might mean the supporting scripts or the
rtems-tester.

I had a quick look in the latest version of the file and I could find this.

I am not sure the qemu version in the libbsd.txt but I just tried
42d58e7c6760cb9c55627c28ae538e27dcf2f144 for the RSB and it built. The
previous version was failing with a core dump in the install phase when
generating language files.

I will push the RSB change soon.
