Hi,
Thanks for you help with this so far, at very least I've learnt a bit about
debugging programs.
Tell me though, one of the suggested solutions is to explicitly link
libstdc++ before the opengl library, they do this in a python configuration
script that appears to add it to LIBS. how would I do this using the
Makefile?

Cheers
Noel
