Yeah, there must be something hidden in your platform that would explain 
the linker problems and the odd truncation of pathnames seen with 
strace.  However, nothing springs to the eye when comparing your gcc 
configurations with what I have here on Fedora 18, see below.  I'm 
afraid you're on your own tracking down what makes your platform behave 
so oddly when building LO.
