It seems you have libdl statically linked to your executable. That's 
why you have such linker errors. Probably the linker is unable to find 
libdl.so but finds only libdl.a

Anyway static linking should work too, but you need to link with libc. 
If you get segfaults when linking to libc, then cprt0.as for arm-linux 
is buggy.
