When compiling under OpenEmbedded, the following error is seen
as of recently:

As per `make`'s documentation:

  LDFLAGS
    Extra flags to give to compilers when they are supposed to
    invoke the linker, ‘ld’, such as -L. Libraries (-lfoo)
    should be added to the LDLIBS variable instead.

  LDLIBS
    Library flags or names given to compilers when they are
    supposed to invoke the linker, ‘ld’. LOADLIBES is a
    deprecated (but still supported) alternative to LDLIBS.
    Non-library linker flags, such as -L, should go in the
    LDFLAGS variable.

Correct. And the patch I use for my local 4.19 build actually uses LDLIBS, so 
it must have gone wrong in some rebase for one of the intermediate versions.
