I've seen these too, and it seems clang produces debug info which
ctfconvert can't handle, for some reason.  However, in my case, the
kernel build doesn't abort at all, it continues and all the object files
seem to work just fine.

I don't know much much about the dtrace/ctfconvert stuff though, so I
will have to ask somebody else to step up to investigate, and hopefully
fix it. :)

Ah, I think that it works for me, because I don't define STRIP to empty.
Just as an experiment, can you try commenting that setting, and do a
clean build of your kernel?
