I am trying to sort out the build on Ubuntu 12.04 and other than

In addition to exact causes, I'm also looking for how people are
debugging (running cmds in isolation, from memory ("I saw something like
that once"), by Google, etc.) Thus, I'm trying to use this thread both
to solve this problem, but to also leave a trail for others hitting the
same or similar issues.
I remember seeing similar problems with missing symbols once and
switching linkers helped. Please run
ls -l /usr/bin/ld*
and you'll see ld.gold, ld.bfd and ld, the latter one being a softlink
to probably ld.gold. Switching this soft link to point to ld.bfd could
help. It is older and slower, but still more reliable
