The problem that I had for most of the day was due to the resolving of function names, eg the wrong function was getting called. I had a function called send() which was in an object file prl.o which was been linked into my program. The problem occurred when the program ran some other chunk of code in a shareable image which in turn called send() which it was expecting to come out of libc.so, it got mine instead and from there the confusion ensewed. So is this just something one should know and therefore prefix all ones functions with "kldfjgj". I had -Wall but got no warnings. Or is this just the way it is when it comes to shared libraries.
