So with the above command-line gcc fails with an exit code for -fno-ipa-cp-clone.
But with cc-option it does not.

Can you dig out the command-line used for cc-option?
We may be able to analyze why it fails in the above case, but
not with cc-option.

I wonder if we hit something strange due to the fact that we
are assigning to KBUILD_CFLAGS and we reference the same variable.

But that does not explain why the others work.
