Thanks for the reply. -Wl,--export-dynamic was already defined. 

After a lot of back and forth if i removed
-Wl,--no-whole-archive 
/nfs/punlinuxvault1/fcdata5/data9/schadha/julia-0.4.6/usr/lib/libunwind-generic.a
 
/nfs/punlinuxvault1/fcdata5/data9/schadha/julia-0.4.6/usr/lib/libunwind.a
 and added -Wl,-E it worked. Cant figure out what i was doing wrong though 
and why the default settings dont work.

Anyway thank you for helping me with this.
