Sorry to dig up an old thread, but I finally found a workaround.  This
author of this blog post (a Gentoo developer) posted this and bumping
up MAX_ARG_PAGES worked for me.  Hopefully this helps someone else
googling.

I don't know what a proper long term solution to this would be, since
the binutils unit test trying to pass a huge arg list is certainly
exceptional.

Hmm, would a gcc invocation to link a real world large
program (like, say, LibreOffice) cause gcc to pass a
similarly huge command line to /usr/bin/ld from binutils?
If so, this might affect using qemu (not qemu-system) for
cross compiles.

Enjoy
