same here, using the gcc toolchain from ecoscentric, on kubuntu 06.10.

Using the same modification as you it works for me, the executables for the 
synth. target run.
Using gcc from the distribution it builds and links also without the 
modification, but they don't run, they get a SIGSEGV in synth_intr.c, void 
synth_hardware_init(void).

I didn't dig deeper into the problem yet.
Are there any known problems with this (k)ubuntu version and ecos ?
