    Hi,
    
    I'm almost glad to see I'm not the only one who had this problem ;-)
    
    Just a precision : I tried to use some static library instead with the hope=
      it=20
    would correct the problem. It did not :-(
    So this does not comes from the shared libs.
    And it seemed to me that the problem came when there is more than 2 libs si=
    nce=20
    I couldn't reproduce it smaller, even with 3 libs if I remember well.
    
    Hope this will somehow help,
    
    Christophe
