Gareth,

   That is an unusual error.  I suspect it has something to do with your 
symbolic links, which isn't the most reliable way to solve the dependency 
problem.  Instead, delete those symlinks, and modify Rules.make to seek out the 
system libraries in the usual location.  Rules.linux-rh7x should be your 
starting point for Rules.make.

Cheers,
Warren
