BINGO!

In
solenv/gbuild/platform/com_GCC_defs.mk
I changed
gb_Helper_set_ld_path := 
$(gb_Helper_LIBRARY_PATH_VAR)="$(OUTDIR_FOR_BUILD)/lib"
to
gb_Helper_set_ld_path := 
$(gb_Helper_LIBRARY_PATH_VAR)="/opt/lib/:$(OUTDIR_FOR_BUILD)/lib"
and now my build continues much further!

Thanks a million for your help; it is most appreciated.

(Guess it would be nice if someone would put a general solution to this 
into the codetree, maybe using a LD_LIBRARY_PATH_PREFIX= var in 
configure or similar).
