Got it, after much searching and probing, I finally called our FreeBSD Guru and he
helped me solve the problem.  If you do a google search for "__fixunsdfdi freebsd",
there is a bug report for gcc 2.95.2 (FreeBSD 4.1).  I did the same search a while
ago, must have looked right over it.  My FreeBSD server is using gcc 2.95.4 so that
is why my compile works.  One of our alphas has 2.95.2, but the __fix... is not needed
on 64 bit.  So in a nutshell gcc -shared is broken in version 2.95.2.

                             Thanks for the responses,

                                          STH
