When trying to build emacs 23.3b, it fails to build because it is trying
to link with -nostdlib and explicitly link to pre-crt0.o,
/usr/lib/crt1.o, and /usr/lib/crti.o, which don't exist.
This appears to come from the START_FILES and LIB_STANDARD variables set
in src/s/gnu-linux.h. Setting STARTFILES and LIB_STANDARD to nothing
and removing the -nostdlib flag from Makefile.in resolves the issue.
I have no idea why the build system is trying to explicitly link to (the
wrong) standard libraries after telling gcc not to link them, but this
doesn't seem like a very good idea.
I am building on Ubuntu 11.10 with gcc 4.6.1.

Thanks for the report. This problem is already fixed for Emacs 24.1.
You might like to try a pretest from
