Are the object files being produced with the -fPIC -DPIC switches to GCC? You need them in FreeBSD to produce shareable (position-independent) code, since we don't use ELF (yet). Also, I've gotten the "relinking on behalf of you buggy system linker" messages from libtool lots of times (I believe it has to do with the way we do dlopen() and friends), but as long as -fPIC is on, that shouldn't matter. -- Lee C. -- Manassas, VA, USA (WakkyMouse on DALnet #watertower) A!
