That’s because Debian uses libc < 2.22 (libc 2.22 introduced libmvec,
hence the linker script.)

Unfortunately no, that’s a long-standing libltdl bug:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2011-03/msg00021.html
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-libtool/2011-03/msg00029.html
You’d make a lot of people happy by fixing libltdl. ;-)
Thanks,
