I've found the culprit: the problem is in this command of the build:

    ld -Bshareable  -d -warn-common -o hello.ko.debug hello.kld

I had put /usr/local/bin in my $PATH before /usr/bin for a reason I don't
currently recall, and have binutils-2.23.1 installed.  As a result, ld(1)
in the quoted line above was called from /usr/local/bin/ld, which brought
in all the weird things I was observing: failure of fusefs-kmod, failure
of simple "hello world" KLD, "link_elf: symbol <blah> undefined" messages
when loading snd_hda(4) and nvidia(4) drivers.

How, does anyone have a clue why new ld(1) plays so badly with our system
toolchain on 8.x (at least)?
