Actually, I just realised that these chkincs binaries don't need to be
linked with all these libraries at all, since they don't actually call any
functions and are just meant to check includes. Let me test with removing
all the "link_whole:" parameters and if that works, submit it as a new
patch. That might solve your issues here - again depending on how your
environment is set up.
