I ran into the same problem.
The solution (for me) was to delete everything generated in
lib/libarch/i386 (make clean[dir] will not do that):
cd [...]lib/libarch/i386;rm *.o *.po *.so* *.ln *.cat* *.a

Then make will rebuild them in lib/libarch and everything will be fine!

I think the Makefile has slightly changed, so that everything is
built now in libarch and not those subdirs anymore.
