Hi Bruce, Please always respond to the list, not to me personally. The people on the list know much more than I do, especially about this type of issue. Yes, this is all great information. Thank you for investigating. It would be useful to figure out why 2.1.4 works for you and 2.2.0rc1 does not. Can you run the command "ldd" on the compiled 2.1.4 binary and the 2.2.0rc1 binary? Any differences? Also, do you see the same problem with cross-references? We have a separate bug that has to do with cross-references. I would be surprised if it's related, but who knows? Are you familiar with the concept of a git bisect? Finally, something is strange with quoting for your emails. When you replied, it did not put my email indented with ">". it is thus hard to see above what I wrote and what you wrote. If you don't mind changing whatever option (look for "quoting" options), that would be appreciated. Thanks for your help in figuring out this issue! Scott
