make check fails, cannot find -lc

[Stewart, Adam James]

Hi,

I'm trying to build binutils 2.28 with GCC 4.8.5 on CentOS 7.3, but it fails during `make check`. The error message is:

gcctestdir/ld: error: cannot find -lc
gcctestdir/ld: error: cannot find -ldl
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.8.5/../../../../lib64/crt1.o(.text+0x12): error: undefined reference to '__libc_csu_fini'

pr20216_main.c:18: error: undefined reference to 'abort'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Let me know if you need any more information to debug this.
