I think the check I added for that specific error got committed.
Look at the defintion of cmd_objtool in scripts/Makefile.build.

Although I seem to have a local change to the definition of
cmd_modversions_c.
It might be that the version of a change I made that got committed
is missing an extra $ when processing the saved output from 'objdump -h'.
It used to just pipe into grep - so lost the error result from objdump.
