So despite me pointing out this issue here and in other instances, you committed
one or more patches with the issue unaddressed, now tripping up the builder:

../../binutils-gdb/bfd/elf-attrs.c: In function ‘_bfd_obj_attr_v2_tag_to_string’:
../../binutils-gdb/bfd/elf-attrs.c:392:36: error: format ‘%lu’ expects argument of type ‘long unsigned int’, but argument 2 has type ‘obj_attr_tag_t’ {aka ‘long long unsigned int’} [-Werror=format=]
