I don't think the strlen macros has any influence in this case (it
already uses __builtin_strlen anyway).

The problem is that it sets __HAVE_ARCH_STRLEN, and therefore the 
out-of-line function in lib/string.c is not built.

That breaks when gcc replaces a call to a different function with a call 
to strlen().

I'd rather guess that gcc is
expanding strncat internally to something involving strlen with
non-constant argument,

We agree on this one.

although I cannot see how that can happen from a
quick look.

It isn't the first time we have these problems in the kernel...
