Well that went further and cleaner but failed with:
[ 84%] Building CXX object src/Sigil/CMakeFiles/sigil.dir/qrc_icon.cxx.o
Linking CXX executable ../../bin/sigil
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -l1
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -l1
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -l1
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -l1
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [bin/sigil] Error 1
make[1]: *** [src/Sigil/CMakeFiles/sigil.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

I've been building stuff including the linux kernel for over 10 years and I have *never* seen that error!. I have no idea *which* library is being missed.

Anyone got a clue? A 'grep -R -H -n '-l1' *' against the entire build tree lists src/Sigil/Makefile as containing that, but a search in the file gives 'Pattern not found: -l1'.
Now officially stumped!
