Ehh, are you sure you don't have some kind of local changes in your
2018.02.5 tree? Looking at the bluez-utils5 git repo I see that bdaddr
has been marked noinst since

    build: Promote experiemental tools

    This promotes many tools that were behind --enable-experimental which are
    in fact used as stable tools for a while.

Which is part of the 5.43 release, so bdaddr should get built on both
2018.02.x and 2019.02.x, but not installed into TARGET_DIR.

find -name bdaddr
./build/bluez5_utils-5.48/tools/bdaddr

Sorry, I don't know. Perhaps ask the bluez developers?
