Per src/EDITME (which should be your template for Local/Makefile):
----------------------------8< cut here >8------------------------------
# Support for dynamically-loaded string expansion functions via ${dlfunc. If
# you are using gcc the dynamically-loaded object must be compiled with the
# -shared option, and you will need to add -export-dynamic to EXTRALIBS so
# that the local_scan API is made available by the linker. You may also need
# to add -ldl to EXTRALIBS so that dlopen() is available to Exim.
# EXPAND_DLFUNC=yes
----------------------------8< cut here >8------------------------------
I'm guessing that EXTRALIBS did not gain -export-dynamic on that box.
Consider checking your build configs into revision control and working
towards repeatable builds, with checksums, for deployment onto hosts.
