The Problem is , that the linker does not handle the DRI-compatible symboltable
in the correct way, so try using the -s option to advice the linker to
strip off the symboltable.

Bye the way, I've got the stuff from koeln, too, and I dont have that problem;
maybe you are not using the linker provided in the package in the cs-directory
at the site.
