```

For some reason, libtool isn't specifying the target for ld.lld:
ld.lld: error: /<pathTo>/toolchain/lib/clang/21/lib/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/clang_rt.crtbegin.o
is incompatible with elf32-littlearm

Note how `--target=armv6-pc-linux-gnu --sysroot=<...>` was set with
the first clang command, but only `--sysroot` exists with the
subsequent clang command for linking.
