The Buildroot changes have been committed for the 2014.08 release.

As a requirement for creating a base filesystem for a target device (by cross-compiling), BR must also build some host tools.

Now, BR will build a copy of patchelf for your host machine.
Which can be used by a user-supplied, post image-build script to do the fixups required.

Although the original bug in BR concerning ld.so token handling could not be fixed. . . .
That problem has been documented and the above host tool provides a work-around.
