This happens when our %ldflags are not used for linking.

You probably need to use LDFLAGS="%ldflags" somewhere or some other flag
or variable, to get the %ldflags to appear after 'cc' in this line in
the build:
cc -DREVISION=3.11 ascii.c -o ascii

- Spoilers below -

OK, looked at the package.
First, your %build is wrong. You use CFLAGS="$RPM_OPT_FLAGS" in the
%make command, but the Makefile doesn't even use any CFLAGS variable!

Similarly, it doesn't use LDFLAGS so setting that would do no good either.

You need to either e.g.
a) change the CFLAGS="$RPM_OPT_FLAGS" to CC="gcc %optflags %ldflags", or
b) patch the Makefile to use $(CFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS) after the $(CC)
instance and use %setup_compile_flags before %make.
