Is this current trunk or an older snapshot? I don't see this with
busybox' r16629 and a few local patches like
package/busybox/busybox.config_RPC.patch
package/busybox/busybox.less.00.patch
package/busybox/busybox.no_werror.patch
package/busybox/busybox.applet_chrt.patch
package/busybox/busybox.passwd.01_all.patch
package/busybox/busybox.scratch_branch-misc_shrinkage.03.patch
package/busybox/busybox.scratch_branch-misc_shrinkage.04.patch
package/busybox/busybox.scratch_branch-misc_shrinkage.05.patch

What kernel-version (resp. header version) do you use?

That's guarded by !defined(NO_DEBUG) and we build with -DNO_DEBUG.
Curious as to why you see this.. Works For Me, fwiw..
