Sounds like a linking problem. Is it something to do with the way you have
specified libraries to be used. Often if you specify library A first and B
later in the list, then if something in B calls something in A, the linker
will not find it. One way to handle this is to repeat the list of
libraries, so that A now appears after B, as well as before it.
