	It looks like some extreme oddness in the build environment. We use
ORBIT_LIBS to link test/everything which is generated from:

PKG_CHECK_MODULES(ORBIT, \
	linc >= $LINC_REQUIRED \
	glib-2.0 >= $GLIB_REQUIRED \
	gobject-2.0 >= $GLIB_REQUIRED \
	gmodule-2.0 >= $GLIB_REQUIRED)
AC_SUBST(ORBIT_LIBS)

	linc.pc.in requires gthread etc. so ...

	Is it possible that you built linc a long time ago without using
--disable-static, and thus you have a stale liblinc.a lying around that
test/everything tries to link against erroneously ?

	Regards,

		Michael.
