OK, I renamed the libgcc_s.so.1 lib and ran make again. This time it
built. However, I did find this warning message in the log file:

/usr/bin/ld: warning: libgcc_s.so.1, needed by
/usr/local/lib/libfribidi.so, not found (try using -rpath or rpath-link)

I continued checking and that library is installed by 'fribidi'.

Anyway, I also discovered that libgcc_s.so.1 is linked to
'/usr/compat/linux/lib/libgcc_s.so.1'.

I left the library renamed and so far nothing bad has happened. I
honestly have no idea what is going on here though. Perhaps someone
else here does.
