It's virtually guaranteed that PIC and/or shared libraries are involved
somehow in this problem.
If you'll send me the following, I might be able to help figure out
what's going on:
* The full make output (including the "ld" command) for the command
that produced the diagnostic you quoted.
* The full make output for all the steps involved in creating
libcruft.a. That means all the compilations to produce the .o
files going into it, plus whatever was done to produce the library
itself.
* Just for fun, the output of this command, run on your make output:
egrep -i 'pic|share|\.so\>'
