nope. nothing is wrong with that version, it just missing some API that 
*wasn't* *used* at all. i can't see why the program should be broken by 
the thing that it is not using. when i commented out missing APIs, 
everything starts to work. using libraries in the proper way will not 
cause this problem. and if that API is required by a program, the program 
will break in compile time, not after it was successfully built.

it's wrong to break the program by something it doesn't use in the first 
place.
