Ok, I just found the problem.  The version of binutils I was
using when I made the change was doing a good job at reading my
mind, and guessing that I wanted libc dynamically linked.  Your
version was not reading my mind very well at all (perhaps due to
the great distance ;-).

To fix it, I added -Bdynamic to the link line to tell ld that I
really want libc linked dynamically.  This avoids the need for a
psychic version of ld (most versions seem to be missing that
feature)....  

I just tried it using the tuxscreen buildroot, which now does the
right thing.  Care to try and see if its now fixed for you?
