That means the symbol is a local symbol, not a global one. I think I see
what's happening here. I think the problem is the {{{ -fvisibility=hidden
}}} option passed to gcc. (See TT #1255 for what might be an earlier
manifestation of this problem.)
You are using gcc-3.4.6. According to the gcc-3.4.6 docs on
[http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-3.4.6/gcc/Option-Summary.html],
gcc-3.4.6 does not accept the {{{ -fvisibility=hidden }}} option.
However, your version appears to have been patched to accept it. This
confuses Parrot's configure system, which adds visibility attributes, but
only if the gcc version is >= 4.0.
The simplest workaround for you is probably to delete the line with {{{
-fvisibility=hidden }}} in config/auto/warnings.pm and then re-run
Configure.pl.
Longer term, parrot should couple the tests for the command line option
-fvisibility and the
attribute((visibility("default")).
