- A fellow here was having a similar problem not long ago. After much
- experimentation and gnashing of teeth, he believes that he solved the
- problem. He was linking libBSD *before* libc (which is what happens
- by default when you add a -lBSD). Forcing libc to link before libBSD
- by specifying "-lc -lBSD" seemed to clear things up for him.

- Note though that I got this explanation by word of mouth and did not
- actually try it myself.
-
- Good luck!
