Fascinating.  For some non-evident reason, cc has decided to invoke
the loader instead of the compiler.  I can't see any good reason for
that, but why not expiriment: change to directory lib, and issue the
command manually.  In particular, I'd like to see the output of:

 cc -v -O -c /usr/src/usr.bin/lex/lib/libmain.c -o libmain.o

and

 cc -v -O -c /usr/src/usr.bin/lex/lib/libmain.c

The -v option prints out exact information about the passes that cc
starts, and the -o libmain.o is superfluous (though I suspect it has
something to do with this problem).
