linker bug in gcc

[Edward Peschko <horos11 at gmail dot com>]

All,

I was trying to compile a new version of libselinux, and ran across a
weird error (attached). I tried a bunch of stuff, and finally searched
all the libraries on the system for that symbol, which was found in
/lib/ld-2.3.4.so.

In desperation I added it explicitly on the command line, and it
compiled. So. Is this just a bug in gcc and the linker chain?
Shouldn't the linker itself handle linking in symbols found in the
linker itself? Or perhaps its a bug.

I'm somewhat perplexed about this..
