Note that the build also fails on i386 on the same files, but in a
different way:

| FAILED: test-ipv4ll

| /usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Nonrepresentable section on output
| collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

That might help debugging the issue as it is more understandable than
a simple assert.
