[Buildroot] gcc-4.3.2: add backport fix for PR 32044

Hi,

gcc-4.3.2 needs a backported patch for issue PR 32044, below is a patch
that adds this to buildroot2.

Many thanks to Uwe Kleine-König for the backport and to Robert Schwebel
for pointing me there.

The original posting is here:

http://www.nabble.com/Backport-fix-for-PR-32044-(final-value-replacement-too-aggressive)-%09to-gcc-4.3-td22199271.html                        

Not sure yet whether this solves a number of strange crashes on a PXA
board, but the patch is certainly needed.

Best regards,
Daniel
