I remain unconvinced about this. The problem described in the PR is
that the system assembler decides to use pkgsrc libelf because it's
linked incorrectly. Even though it's linked incorrectly, this should
not happen.

Did you ever figure out what was causing as to find the wrong libelf?

There should be nothing that would prompt as to look in /usr/pkg/lib
and pick up pkgsrc libelf - it is not linked with anything from
pkgsrc, should not have an rpath pointing into /usr/pkg, /usr/pkg/lib
should not be on the default shared library search path, and
LD_LIBRARY_PATH should not be set.  If LD_LIBRARY_PATH is being set by
the glib2 (or curl) build, it is wrong and the package should be
fixed. If you've added /usr/pkg/lib to the default shared library
search path or set LD_LIBRARY_PATH yourself, don't...
