I think it's because ARCH_LIB_DIR=lib64 and copy_toolchain_lib_root doesn't take
into account the content of lib directory in that case.

Other toolchains contains this symlink in lib or lib64.

libc/lib:
ld-linux.so.2 -> ld-2.18.so

libc/lib64:
ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 -> ld-2.18.so

But here we have:
libc/lib:
ld-linux-aarch64.so.1 -> ../lib64/ld-2.18.so

and no symlink in lib64 directory.

> Actually, why is it even needed to symlink an ld.so in the staging dir?

Maybe just to avoid to link against a library with a specific version
(ld-2.18.do) and be sure that the correct ELF dynamic linker is user depending
on arch's name (ld-linux-aarch64.so.1).
Otherwise, I don't know.

Best regards,
Romain
