Bart De VOS pointed out that removing absolute paths from the libc linker scripts is plainly wrong.
It dates from dawn ages of the original crosstool code, and is not well explained. At that time, binutils might not understand the sysroot stuff, and it was necessary to remove absolute paths in that case.

1 # GMP and MPFR libraries config options
9 Recent gcc needs both GMP and MPFR to build some frontends.
11 Say 'Y' here if you want to build those two libraries specifically
14 The packages that can use GMP and MPFR are:
19 config GMP_MPFR_TARGET
21 prompt "Build libraries for the target"
23 depends on ! BARE_METAL
26 Also build libraries for the target. This can be usefull if you want
27 to later build a compiler that will run on the target, or if you want
28 to run gdb natively on the target.
