That would be me and T. Abott. I have an alternative set up that was more flexible and allowed non-gld linker, which is the main issue in this case. I remember posting some patch at the time on debian-sage. I will have to check if they can still be applied to the latest version of ntl. The thread on debian-sage is here: http://groups.google.com/group/debian-sage/browse_thread/thread/85ed49653a5fafd9/6e31f0701f8c6b26#6e31f0701f8c6b26 I am a bit busy at the moment otherwise I could give you the details of it works.
