multiple definition of `g_utf8_skip'

[Thomas Dineen]

Gentle People:

I was able to build the new version of the mxe cross environment
(gcc Cross Compiler To Windows).

    When I build my application I get the following error shown below:

"multiple definition of `g_utf8_skip'"

     Since it appears to be a conflict between two libraries within the mxe
environment I was wondering if any of you had any ideas of how to fix it?

     Is there a way to tell gcc to favor the symbol from one library versus
the other?

libidn.a(nfkc.o) <=> (libglib_2_0_la-gutf8.o)

     Please respond. I have never seen this kind of error before and I could
use your help.
