I recognize this type of error; it's exactly what you get in pythonpackages under intel with Python @ GCCcore where it picks up GCC as the linker command, but tries to use the LDFLAGS for intel. If this also is the case here, the proper fix would be to fix the linker command (maybe the suggested patches fixes that though)
