I'm unfamiliar with the stuff above the makefile level (it came in after
my time & though I have dug around occasionally, I never can remember
what it is all about - that is why I built my windows version of Denemo
straight from invocations of gcc, not even make). Jeremiah looks after
the build system on Denemo, but I know he has his hands full with new
arrivals.

where libasprintf.so is a link to libasprintf.so.0.0.0 which does not
exist. I try
 make .libs/libasprintf.so.0.0.0
make: *** No rule to make target `.libs/libasprintf.so.0.0.0'.  Stop.

that is target/tools/build/gettext-0.15/gettext-runtime/libasprintf/

make: `libasprintf.la' is up to date.

I see that you have .libs/libasprintf.so.0.0.0 so I tried diffing the
Makefile that should generate it, allowing for the difference in the
location of gub the diff shows only this:

Sorry for being so clueless with all this. Nils is trying on a 32-bit
machine, so perhaps he will get there.
