Hi,
I solved my own problem - should have given it some thought before
posting, I guess. In comparing file sizes and time stamps for
files like /usr/lib/{libelf.a,libelf.so.1}, it's clear that these
files differed from machines on which compiling wasn't a problem.
I re-applied patch 103627-02, even though the patch was supposedly
already installed (according to showrev -p), and that updated the
files like libelf.a and libelf.so.1 which had mysteriously reverted
to an earlier version. And compiling now works as expected ...
