When I said it uses the host gcc I really meant it uses the host
gcc.  The conf.c is an application which gets run on the build host, not the
target.

This is the compile command which failed to find ctype.h:

gcc -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -I. -c                   
/home/okl4user/okl4_2.1/oklinux_2.6.23.21/apps/busybox/scripts/config/conf.c    
-o conf.o     

You can try invoking that directly to try and work out why it might
be causing this problem.
