Er. I don't appear to have that. In fact, 'find <builddir> -type f -name
"crt*"' comes back with.... nothing whatsoever, at least on the origional
build setup. Now I'm very confused...

Trust me to follow instructions; don't trust me to be right when guessing.
I believe the bit above that mentioned ld and collect2, implying that
it is, in fact, an error coming out of ld. Of course, since we just
established, above, that I appear to be missing crtbeginS.o, or any other
useful crt files in the build area, I wonder what the *heck* is going on.
