That seems to indicate that the standard output handle is somehow
closed.  Could you please see if it is already closed when Emacs
starts, or is closed during the run?

To do that, you could either (a) use some utility, such as truss or
strace, to report system calls issued by Emacs; or (b) invoke fwrite
from GDB at the beginning of the Emacs `main' function (put a
breakpoint in `main' to stop Emacs there), and see what it returns.

Probably the library and the header files, not only the compiler, have
something to do with this.

Thanks for working on this.
