When you extra the android-ndk-*.tar.bz2, it should create a symlink named liblto_plugin.soto the real file liblto_plugin.so.?.?.?.

If you have a problem creating symlinks (e.g. a shared directory in a virtual machine), the symlink won't be created and the problem will occur. Try re-extracting the .tar.bz2 file to a filesystem that supports symlinks and verify that liblto_plugin.so exists.
