Thanks for pointing this out, I should have remembered to look there
first myself.

In my case a did a non-update build, so nbcrunchgen (tool) should have
been rebuilt from scratch from up-to-date in-tree sources and run from
TOOLDIR, so that part is probably not the issue.

I still find it a bit strange and unexpected that parts of the build
uses a library from DESTDIR in preference over one built inside OBJDIR
(where the newly-built version is not yet installed).  If I'm not
terribly mistaken, not referring to anything inside DESTDIR in the
rescue build would at least had a decent chance of fixing this version
skew build problem.
