I looked into the binutils sources around the error and narrowed it down 
to a problem with the archive architecture being "unknown" apparently. 
At least with this -->

armv5tel-redhat-linux-gnueabi-gcc hello.c -Wl,--accept-unknown-input-arch

it's able to advance to complaining about the (legitimate) lack of libc.
