As far as I know, brandelf is only necessary for statically-linked ELF
binaries.  Also, as I stated above, the binaries that are produced
work fine if I use the linux-glide target, so it would appear that
branding is definitely not the problem.

I'm pretty sure it's been established now that the old binutils present
in our linux_devel port have problems with Mesa even under Linux.
