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 This patch sets the page size to a default 12, that is a 4KiB block size.
2 Testing for the correct block-size is impossible when cross-compiling.
4 It was build up by Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@anciens.enib.fr> from some
5 bits gathered from buildroot, which is LGPL v2.1
