It looks that BFD library included with gcl is incompatible with
your operating system. Or maybe you use header files from included
BFD library, but the system version of BFD library (which is
clearly incompatible with version included with gcl).
I am affraid I will not be able to help, but anybody trying to
help will need more information: in particular version of
software involved: OS (Linux version), BFD library, gcc.
