Linker: ok; ld.so: undefined symbol

[Ingolf Koch <ingolf%jellonet.de@localhost>]

Hi,

on NetBSD-1.5_ALPHA/amiga it is possible to successfully
link object files with shared libraries but then get
"undefined symbol" errors by ld.so, e.g.

% lyx
/usr/libexec/ld.so: Undefined symbol "_glXMakeCurrent" in 
lyx:/usr/X11R6/lib/libforms.so.0.88

"ldd `which lyx`" does not list libGL.so. I thought that
the _linker_ should have detected that _glXMakeCurrent is
missing and should not have produced an executable ins this
case. Am I wrong?

All libaries as well as the lyx program were compiled on
the very same machine. I think that I had seen a similar
problem on pre-1.5 (again on Amiga).
