Re: Base configure fails

[David Chisnall]

This is a pretty strange error.  __i686.get_pc_think.bx is a standard symbol 
used in all position-independent code to get the current instruction pointer.  
I'm not sure how it would end up undefined - if it is then no shared libraries 
will work.  What platform are you on?
