There are several tinderboxes on the Ports page which build with 
--enable-ctl.

Those symbols are not the same.  They are mangled differently (ZN7 vs 
ZN8, for starters).  It looks like you're linking against a different 
version of xpcom than those object files were compiled against.  Make 
sure that you don't have a system version of xpcom installed and are 
pulling that version in before the in-tree version due to ld's handling 
of -L .
