You need the new version of toybox. Currently the commit is in git:


https://github.com/landley/toybox/commit/9be140ebb29f92be2b3924eb1442b38a9e062966

The next toybox release is scheduled for the 1st (thursday), I can
update the download line once there's a tarball URL.

In the meantime, you can go:

  cd download
  git clone https://github.com/landley/toybox

Then it should use the git directory instead of the tarball.
