Hi Travis:

After much investigation, I found out that all the *.so files
which Euphoria couldn't load - about 140 out of 300 -
have "undefined symbols" in them: I found this out
by running ldd -d on them:

irv@blecch irv]$ ldd -d /usr/lib/libgtk.so
......
undefined symbol: gdk_root_window       (/usr/lib/libgtk.so)
undefined symbol: gdk_threads_mutex     (/usr/lib/libgtk.so)
undefined symbol: gdk_display   (/usr/lib/libgtk.so)
undefined symbol: gdk_font_equal        (/usr/lib/libgtk.so)
undefined symbol: gdk_selection_property        (/usr/lib/libgtk.so)
undefined symbol: gdk_progclass (/usr/lib/libgtk.so)
undefined symbol: gdk_root_parent       (/usr/lib/libgtk.so)

All the library files which Euphoria *can* load do not
show any undefined symbols.

I'm using a newly loaded Mandrake distribution, so there's
no chance that I have damaged any files. And I can write
and compile C programs which use libgtk.so without problem.
It's looking more an more like a Euphoria problem.

Please forward this to the Euforum for me, our mail server
is dead (again - that makes three days in a row).

Regards,
Irv
