Hi,

I'm almost glad to see I'm not the only one who had this problem ;-)

Just a precision : I tried to use some static library instead with the hope it 
would correct the problem. It did not :-(
So this does not comes from the shared libs.
And it seemed to me that the problem came when there is more than 2 libs since 
I couldn't reproduce it smaller, even with 3 libs if I remember well.

Hope this will somehow help,

Christophe
