The current CVS tree for 21.2 has a problem with the configure script. The following snippet shows the issue: ----- configure, line 11724 ----- test -z "$with_modules" && test ! -z "$have_dlfcn" && { ----- end ----- If a build is done with DSO modules, no testing for the dynamic load library (-ldl) is done. The 'test -z "$with_modules"' is the cause of the problem. If modules are selected, testing for the dl library is not done and the library is not added to the link process. As a result, the link phase fails with unresolved symbols on my machine (Debian 2.1) from libdl.so.* Daniel -- When a person with experience meets a person with money, the person with experience will get the money.
