How do you come to that conclusion?

Please keep in mind to always export LANG=C LC_ALL=C when posting output, so that there are no translations from english which both make everything more difficult to understand and usually also are very very bad translations. Never send localized output unless asking on a local-only mailing list.

cd shared/libosmocore/build-host && ../configure

Who runs this command? You or make?

Who is running the above and why?

configure:2839: checking for x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc configure:2855: found /usr/bin/x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc

So this is the compiler that would be used.

Find why /usr/bin/x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc invokes /usr/local/bin/ld.

Any idea ?

I think you have simply created a broken build environment on your system. I have no idea how you did that, but you seem to just have a mess of toolchains. You need to clean that up and set up the neccessary system and target toolchains. Nothing more, nothing less.
