Heiko,
Thank you for responding,
I was only in the build directory to troubleshoot why the build was
failing on my system. Normally I don't have any trouble with Exim.

This was just part of my troubleshooting step to pin point the trouble
point on my system.

Thank you for the hints, I will look along that line.
I was able to get a complete compile without the "undefined reference"
error by adding macro-globals.o to the lines OBJ_DUMPDB, OBJ_FIXDB and
OBJ_TIDYDB in OS/Makefile-Base.
Since I am the only one who is having this problem, the issue appears to
be local to me.
Best regards,
Paul

You are not expected to chdir into the build directory. You are expected
to be *above* the build directory.
heiko@x1:…/src $ ls
LICENSE Local Makefile build-… src …
And, additionally try a "make distclean" before doing anything else.
(This will let your Local/Makefile* inplace. So, no pain is expected.)

…
Again, first, you're not expected to sit in the build* directory, and
2nd, you're not expected to "make …" each tool individually.
I can't reproduce your issue. but this:

reads as if somewhere an outdated *.a is hanging around. (or a broken
compile cache?)
