This defconfig breaks building libcec:

BR2_x86_64=y
BR2_REPRODUCIBLE=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_WCHAR=y
BR2_TOOLCHAIN_BUILDROOT_CXX=y
BR2_PACKAGE_LIBCEC=y

with this error message:

In file included from /home/bernd/buildroot/output/build/libcec-4.0.2/src/libcec/CECClient.cpp:34:0:
/home/bernd/buildroot/output/build/libcec-4.0.2/src/libcec/env.h:92:19: warning: missing terminating " character
 #define LIB_INFO ("git revision: 2017.11+950-973b1fd, compiled on date: Warning: using $SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH instead of true time

The warning emitted by fakedate adds a line break to the output of the
date command. This output is stored by libcec configure into env.h to
be compiled into the resulting binary:

https://github.com/Pulse-Eight/libcec/blob/master/src/libcec/cmake/SetBuildInfo.cmake#L29

src/libcec/env.h contains these two lines:

 #define LIB_INFO ("git revision: 2017.11+950-973b1fd~dirty, compiled on date: Warning: using $SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH instead of true time
 Wed Jan 31 19:32:08 UTC 2018 by user@machine on Linux 4.14.16-amd64 (x86_64), features: P8_USB, DRM")

Removing the warning from fakedate fixes the build error.

Hmm, it is a pity that exec_program also grabs stderr.

I'm not sure if we should really get rid of the warning, but OK - I
cannot think of other simple solutions.

There seems to be a lof of things in that cmake file breaking
reproducible builds though (hostname, username, uname), so maybe the
real fix is to make these things optional and disable when
BR2_REPRODUCIBLE is enabled.
