Upon further examination, I've discovered that this is HARMLESS noise.
The "|| { rm && ln -s }" part DOES make the required symlink.
In fact, ltmain.sh has a comment on this subject:
# Delete the old symlinks, and create new ones.
# Try `ln -sf' first, because the `ln' binary might depend on
# the symlink we replace! Solaris /bin/ln does not
understand -f,
# so we also need to try rm && ln -s.
Sorry for this report, which turned out NOT to be an actual problem.
