Ok, building the SDK on Debian 9 solves the issue.  The SDK built on
Ubuntu 18.10 has the issue even if used on Debian 9, so it's the
building of the SDK where the issue, whatever it is, occurs.  As I have
a handy Debian VM I'm not going to worry too much about it at the
moment, unless there is a patch someone needs me to test.

Daniel
