Hmm, it seems it is pushing out the assembly code on stdout/stderr
instead of (or in addition to) pushing it to a file, and possibly that
it is executing ld incorrectly. Have you tried running linuxktrace
(need older kernel, I think) or truss on it?
The output from either of this might prove enlightening.
