nodejs option not available config file

I'm developing on fedora 24 (gcc 6)

In buildroot 2016.05 the comment

*** nodejs needs a toolchain w/ C++, dynamic library, threads, gcc >= 4.8, wchar ***

is always displayed  

The test that is failing is BR2_HOST_GCC_AT_LEAST_4_8

Nodejs Config.in

removing the BR2_HOST_GCC_AT_LEAST_4_8 tests displays the nodejs option
Comment 2 Thomas Petazzoni 2016-06-15 12:50:50 UTC 
Removing the dependency is wrong. This problem has been fixed in commit 3d2175780d70a864836c75343fd969fba1109057, which wasn't part of Buildroot 2016.05.

Basically, using Buildroot 2016.05 on a machine that has gcc 6 is not supported. Use the latest Git if you are in such a situation.
