Thanks Timo.

I would have suspected a self-built toolchain and called it out. No, I'm
using the gcc-4.7.3-r6 and libc-0.9.33.2-r22 binary packages from edge
x86.

The only self-built packages I'm aware of on this machine (that are
otherwise available on edge) are:

    busybox
    cryptsetup
    getmail
    less
    lynx
    msmtp
    mutt
    ncurses
    procmail
    rxvt-unicode
    syslinux
    vim
    xkeyboard-config

I can confirm that when I ssh to a pretty vanilla system (tracking
alpine
2.6/x86_64), and do:

    $ git clone git://git.alpinelinux.org/apk-tools
    $ cd apk-tools/
    $ sudo apk add -t apk-make openssl-dev zlib-dev lua-dev
    $ make clean
    $ . /etc/abuild.conf
    $ make

that does work fine, no errors. Wonder what the breaking difference is.

Well, if I figure it out, I'll report. If you have any
ideas/suggestions, I welcome them.

On the problematic machine, changing LD to gcc in the Make.rules file no
longer suffices to fix the issue. I think it used to do so, but I'm not
sure of that---it's been a while since I last did this successfully.
