You'll have to give us some more details that that. What target system
are you using? What is the exact spelling of the symbol? I very much
doubt that it is '_._blahblahblah', because it looks like a C++
destructor name, but that it would have to be '_._12blahblahblah'.
There might be a very good reason for the change in the mangling; or
it might be configuration problem.

Regards,
Martin
