I have managed to track down the error to a change brought in by the patch 0003-Add-option-to-make-the-rpath-relative-under-a-specif.patch.

Please see
https://git.busybox.net/buildroot/tree/package/patchelf/0003-Add-option-to-make-the-rpath-relative-under-a-specif.patch#n257,
at line 257.

At this point canonicalPath is "/media/SSD/Toolchains/my-toolchain/target/usr/lib" but rootDir is longer:
"/media/SSD/Toolchains/my-toolchain/source/buildroot-2020.08/../../target", hence the exception.

It seems that the tool is missing the ability to resolve the "../" components of the rootDir path to make it canonical and I would guess that therefore the tool cannot be working in any case since the paths inside the target executable will never match the passed-in rootDir...

Cheers,
Andy
