Hmm. How weird....  I am looking. 

Ok.  I have tracked it down and I'm not certain what to grumble at.
The tip off was checking the libraries gcc -print-search-dirs reported.

I had some libraries for a home spun x86-64 cross compiler installed
in i386-linux.  gcc was search in there and finding an old copy of glibc-2.2
Which explains why the new symbols were not found.

I will agree that i386-linux was not the best name for a cross
compiler directory.  But why was that being searched before lib?
