No we aren't...

Sorry. I forgot to flag your reply describing how to link statically and
never remembered the subject again (at that time I was more concerned
with the build failure...) I'm taking care of it now.

Regarding puting the snapshot builds on freedesktop.org, I'm fine with
it (it's true I've been quite busy with other stuff and that perhaps I
can't give all the attention required)
, but does it has the resources!?  

It takes about 2hrs in a 1.8GHz to
build 3 branches, requiring about 600Mb of temporary hard-drive space to
build a branch, plus 100Mb of permanent storage per-branch for the local
CVS checkout. The latter can be ignored, since the repository is on the
same machine, but the rest is not such a small deal for a machine which
appears to be dedicated for web and CVS hosting...

Alternatively, I may setup an account for you on my machine, and have
the snapshots being built on that account so that you can apply the
necessary fixes yourself whenever I'm too slow.
