Problem solved.

The ./configure script errors-out when LDxxx="-all-static" is used,
with/without -Xlinker.   However, there's nothing actually wrong with using
the option on this or other systems... It's merely ./configure
brain-damage.

After running configure without the option, adding the -all-static option to
the LDFLAGS of each individual Makefile (in my case, just
nut-2.4.1/clients/Makefile) works perfectly.

I only hope my hours of neddless suffering helps someone.
