Jack,

It's not u-boot that fails for you, it's u-boot-mkimage-native - it's a host 
tool to generate u-boot images, so it runs on your host and hence is built 
with your host compiler. OE/Yocto usually builds bunch of host tools and they 
have the "-native" suffix in their names. Upgradig your host system w/o 
switching profiles or changing paths is a common issue in such cases.
