This would be great, it seems that any little difference on how the toolchain
generates the symbols can break the build.

i tried to do that and dont worked, i run a grep on the source dir to find
where HAVE_LD_VERSION_SCRIPT is used, but grep didnt find it anywhere...are you
sure this is used on tpglib too? on the libgcrypt it seems to exist, but not on
tpglib.

im looking at the blackfin toolchain nm to see if i can found another
workaround...maybe configure it to make an output that works.

thanks for the help Simon, as soon as i get a solution ill post it here.
