I have tried adding -Bdynamic when calling the linker by hand but it still
complained about not finding -lgtk until I removed -lgtk -lgdk -lglib from
the lazarus.res file, then it link OK but core dumps on running.  I tried
also adding lots of -shared /usr/lib/libgtk.so.1 etc etc, but the same -
core dumps.

Surely not!  Redhat5.2 out of the box this is; and if gnome can link to the
libgtk.so.1 why not lazarus?

# file ppc386
ppc386: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1, statically
linked, not stripped

And ppc386 runs OK.
