Actually it even fails with the new Debian default
--no-copy-dt-needed-entries

There is no patch.

Afaict this one is basically identical to 602959. enblend uses
boost_filesystem which includes inline references to boost_system in
its *headers*.

There are a couple of workaround available:
* --with-boost-filesystem=no
* LDFLAGS+=--copy-dt-needed-entries
* Patch the autoconfo suite to also link to libboost_system
