The most likely explanation is that the compiler (or linker, or whatever is trying to access libdl) isn't running under Linux emulation. Even if you start something from a compat shell, it can break out of the emulator if something tries to run a FreeBSD binary. We need to find the command that it's trying to run when it fails. Find the script that it's in (it might be setup_stubs, but it might be another one) and run it with the -x option to sh to show the commands being executed. After you find the command, try executing it manually (in the right directory), and if it still doesn't work, look for the offending FreeBSD binary (it might be executed indirectly as an interpreter, for example).
