There seems to be a similar issue reported here.

android/ndk#329

For anybody else in the future, who might have the same problem — I have tracked down the issue to NDK r16b and NDK r17b not working with each other properly.

I had a library compiled with NDK r16b and it required __emutls_get_address symbol (which was normally provided by libc++_shared.so from NDK r16b), however when later compiling my application with NDK r17b, the libc++_shared.so provided by the newer NDK no longer had the symbol inside. I fixed it by compiling both with NDK r16b, however compiling both with NDK r17b could possibly work as well.

Which version of Android NDK are you building with ?
