Screen output of that ./build-initrd.sh run may help.
Especially what files were copied where.

# mount -t iso9660 -r -o loop setup.iso /mnt
# cd /mnt
# ls -l *ld*linux* losetup
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 108996 Jun  9 00:48 ld_linux.2
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root root  54908 Jun  9 00:48 losetup
# strings -a losetup | grep "ld.*linux"
/lib/ld-linux.so.2

To me that "ld_linux.2" file name looks wrong.
Maybe it should be renamed as "ld-linux.so.2"

If that doesn't work, then try using statically linked version of losetup.
