Thanks for this hint.  I know now what the problem is.
One of the bugs that will hit on cross-compile.  Just need to find out
where the buggy code is:

What I overlooked until now:  The error occurs only in the DESTDIR
install, not in the regular one.  The failure is here (last few lines of
the log Sean made available online):

The line starting with

contains

which is wrong.  It should contain
| -L/home/sdague/tmp/am-dc-28498//home/sdague/openhpi/openhpi-1.9.3/_inst/lib

Who finds the culprit?
