Hey!  This comes up long before libtool's ld-new is ever started.
It's the gcc driver that fails to exec collect2.  It looks like we've
been barking up the wrong tree for all the time.  I don't understand
how the extra dependencies might have fixed this problem, but, if they
have, there's something very strange about your environment.  You
can't blame libtool for gcc not being able to run collect2 :-)
