Here's a snippet from a message from jdp to Gary Palmer on June 22nd:

Yep.  Update your ld-elf.so.1 and that will fix it.  Doug's recent
linker fix (src/contrib/binutils/bfd elf64-alpha.c revision 1.2)
relies on an up-to-date dynamic linker.
========================================================================

It's certainly annoying.  If people had to do that on i386 buildworlds,
they would be screaming.
