A list of compilation problems we have encountered 

= Linker errors =

== undefined reference to __cxa_get_exception_ptr ==

05Dec07 (Gabriel and Holger)

Happens when linking .o files compiled with g++-3.4 together with .o files compiled with g++-4.x

Solution: make sure to compile all .o files with the same version of g++ !

== undefined reference to "pthread_mutex_unlock" etc. ==

Happens when not linking with -lpthread or when -lpthread comes before -lcompletesearch when linking

Solution: put -lcompletesearch before -lpthread (and also before -lz etc.)
