Re: Panel Segfaults

[Will Woods <wwoods wam umd edu>]

just joined the list for this.. *grin* i've been banging my head against
this for a week, and it seems i now have the same problem as Mr. Gleef; my
panel segfaults on startup. the problem seems to live in ORBit somewhere
(see debugging nonsense below). Also, i don't know if this is related, but
when compiling test-poa, i get the following error:

../../src/IIOP/.libs/libIIOP.a(connection.o): In function
`iiop_connection_server_unix':
/extra/gnome/ORBit/src/IIOP/connection.c:445: undefined reference to
`SUN_LEN'

if any more information is needed (or maybe this is too much and you just
want to ask me to be a little less verbose with my posts.. *grin*), i'd be
happy to oblige.

hope this helps,
