I don't know the details about the build process on Ubuntu. I have
tested the Debian versions (wheezy and sid), and they work all right. I
would have expected Ubuntu to be compatible.

Looking at the errors:

   x86-64.linux.base.o: In function `.170':
   (.text+0x1692): undefined reference to `dlopen'
   x86-64.linux.base.o: In function `.172':
   (.text+0x16b1): undefined reference to `dlopen'
   x86-64.linux.base.o: In function `.178':
   (.text+0x1736): undefined reference to `dlsym'
   x86-64.linux.base.o: In function `dlErrX':
   (.text+0x1c120): undefined reference to `dlerror'

we see that the dynamic library functions are missing. The man page of
dlopen(3) in Debian says to link with "-ldl". Is this also the case in
Ubuntu?

The "src64/Makefile" specifies "-ldl" for Linux builds. It would be
interesting not only to see the above error messages, but also the
actual invocation of the linker. Is "-ldl" there?

Cheers,
- Alex
