What happened? I could build Kodi right now using this defconfig:

BR2_arm=y
BR2_cortex_a7=y
BR2_ARM_FPU_VFPV4=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_GLIBC=y
BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_4_9=y
BR2_GCC_VERSION_4_9_X=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_CXX=y
BR2_PACKAGE_KODI=y
BR2_PACKAGE_RPI_USERLAND=y
BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON=y
BR2_PACKAGE_PYTHON_PY_ONLY=y
