It happens also in the stable env, for ex: I have rebuilt buildroot from 
scratch (within uClibc, only change is coreutils.install changed to 
busybox install) and when uClibc installs ldconfig, if I remove ";" from 
the end of the line, it works, if ";" is left in, it fails (it fails only 
within make install, if I run install -c with ";" added on the command 
line, it works.
At this point the used install is probably that of the system

After this it happens again on installing ld-new as 
build_i386/root/usr/bin/ld (binutils-target), but here is no ";"
last lines are:
/bin/sh ./libtool --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c ld-new /usr/bin/ld
/usr/bin/install -c ld-new /usr/.../buildroot/build_i386/root/usr/bin/ld
install: unable to open 
`/usr/.../buildroot/build_i386/root/usr/bin/ld/ld-new': No such file or 
install: cannot change permissions of ...
install: cannot change ownership of ...
make: *** [install-exec-local] Error 1
make: `Leaving directory /usr/.../buildroot/build_i386/binutils-target/ld'

I do not know which install was now used, that from the build system, or 
from build_i386/root
