[ blink... ] There's no reason for a compile to be looking into shared
libraries. What I think must have happened here is that this reflects a
bogus function call internally in gcc itself. Which probably means that
you have a gcc version that's out-of-sync with your libmpfr.so.1 version
(whatever the heck that is). I'd suggest asking around among some
Debian experts, or just reinstalling instead of upgrading.
