I am unable to compile the code on ubuntu 16.4 LTS after cloning source.

I see this is your build output: make[2]: localize-hidden: Command not found I think this is sue to the CMake command we use:

add_custom_command(
        OUTPUT syscall_intercept_scoped.o
        COMMAND ${CMAKE_OBJCOPY}
                --localize-hidden
                syscall_intercept_unscoped.o
                syscall_intercept_scoped.o
        DEPENDS syscall_intercept_unscoped.o)

Do you have an objcopy that CMake can find? This should be a requirement, but CMake doesn't warn about it.
