The test looks for the exported API function names in the text (T) section, but the ppc64 nm reports them in the data (D) section: $ nm -B -D libknet.so.1.0.0 0000000000000000 A LIBKNET [...] 000000000003ec40 D knet_handle_new [...] Is this a known ppc64 peculiarity or a binutils bug? -- Thanks, Feri
