Re: gcc 3.2.2

[Reyn Vlietstra <reyn@...>]

Hello.

a friend of mine had a problem like that(seg faults with simple tests).
He was using the dynamic library, the matter was apparently resolved
when he added -fpic (to the makefile), it might have been a
misconfiguration, but took a while to track down and fix. 
Funny things is that it worked when ran through valgrind.

I'm not sure what version of gcc he was using (prolly 3.3.2), but if 
he made a misconfiguration mistake, so could others.

Hope I'm not just blabbering ;)
