Do you have patch in your chroot?

Yes the chroot was installed with base base-devel sudo as per wiki
And the chroot fuction/built the entire abs/core so it should be
working.

I am building extra alphbeticaly and it stops on flac after fixing flac
to 

patch -p1 -i ${startdir}/flac-1.2.1-gcc-4.3-includes.patch || return 1

it works.

That is why I entered a bug report.

I have seen $startdir in a lot of PKGBUILDs in core and extra, what is
wrong using it?
