I just took a quick look at the source.  It seems to be trying to
use __libc_lock_lock().  I can't understand _why_ though since
the app does not use threads.  Well libbridge_compat.c defines
__libc_lock_lock() as nothing.  So the obvious fix is  

    --- bridge-utils-0.9.5/libbridge/if_index.c.orig
    +++ bridge-utils-0.9.5/libbridge/if_index.c
    @@ -24,7 +24,6 @@
     #include <net/if.h>
     #include <sys/socket.h>
     #include <sys/ioctl.h>
    -#include <bits/libc-lock.h>
     
     /* Try to get a socket to talk to the kernel.  */
     #if defined SIOCGIFINDEX || defined SIOCGIFNAME

and it will then compile perfectly.  Feel free to send the
fix upsteam, as this line is just obviously wrong.
