I have a faint bell ringing in the distance... The proximate cause is that the static libg2c.a is being picked up and it is likely not -fPIC compiled (which is important on 64bit but AFAIR you get away with it on 32bit). Now why is it that this happens... Is there a libg2c.so around? - O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Øster Farimagsgade 5, Entr.B c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics PO Box 2099, 1014 Cph.
