I will have a look later. But this can be just a general screwup, the
toolchain on HPPA is know to have some strange bugs. So at the end this
may just end in another binutils/gcc/whatever bugreport.

So until I have looked into this I would say you should ignore this
failure, it is too likely to be entirely unrelated.
