Compiler comandline fail, -mmcu= left unset

[JATothrim]

The blink.ino example project fails to build, because Arduino.mk does following with Arduino Nano. Makefile:

ARDMK_DIR=/usr/share/arduino ARDMK_VENDOR=archlinux-arduino ARDUINO_DIR=/usr/share/arduino ARCHITECTURE = avr BOARD_TAG = nano BOARD_SUB = atmega328p include $(ARDMK_DIR)/Arduino.mk

Result: /usr/bin/avr-g++ -x c++ -include Arduino.h -MMD -c -D__PROG_TYPES_COMPAT__ -mmcu= -DF_CPU=16000000L -DARDUINO=1813 -DARDUINO_AVR_NANO -DARDUINO_ARCH_AVR "-DARDUINO_BOARD=\"AVR_NANO\"" "-DARDUINO_VARIANT=\"eightanaloginputs\"" -I/usr/share/arduino/hardware/archlinux-arduino/avr/cores/arduino -I/usr/share/arduino/hardware/archlinux-arduino/avr/cores/arduino/api -I/usr/share/arduino/hardware/archlinux-arduino/avr/variants/eightanaloginputs -Wall -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -Os -fno-exceptions -std=gnu++11 -fno-threadsafe-statics -flto -fdiagnostics-color=always blink.ino -o build-nano-atmega328p/blink.ino.o avr-g++: error: missing device or architecture after '-mmcu='

Somehow -mmcu= is not set as "-mmcu=atmega328p" even though I specified it. What's going on?

More over I would love to have more control how Arduino.mk setups the compiler command line flags for CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS etc. Currently I can't by default remove etc. -fpermissive flag from the compiler cmdline without hacking the Arduino.mk installed on the system... :-(

It seems to be a duplicate of issue #638.
