In the past I've built kaffe 0.{5,6,9} with no problems.
I'm currently trying to build 0.8.4 so that I can compile some
applets...

I get the following error:

gcc -g -O  -I. -I/u0/share/src/kaffe-0.8.4/kaffe/kaffe/../kaffevm -I../../config -I/u0/share/src/kaffe-0.8.4/kaffe/kaffe/../../config -I../../include -c /u0/share/src/kaffe-0.8.4/kaffe/kaffe/main.c
gcc -g -O  -I. -I/u0/share/src/kaffe-0.8.4/kaffe/kaffe/../kaffevm -I../../config -I/u0/share/src/kaffe-0.8.4/kaffe/kaffe/../../config -I../../include -o kaffe main.o -L../kaffevm -lkaffe_vm

/u0/share/src/kaffe-0.8.4/kaffe/kaffe/main.c:222: Undefined symbol `_gcHeapsize' referenced from text segment

but nm shows:

sjg:32$ nm main.o | grep _gcHeapsize
         U _gcHeapsize
sjg:33$ nm ../kaffevm/libkaffe_vm.so | grep _gcHeapsize
00025dec D _gcHeapsize

This is on
