-shared is meant to built shared libraries, not binaries linked to shared
libs. You need to use -fPIC while compiling and -shared for linking a shared
lib. If you use -shared on a to link a binary it will segfault.
Make sure you have a .so file, e.g. libfoo.so->libfoo.so.6->libfoo.so.6.1.2 
(symlinks) and link with -L/path/to/lib -lfoo in order to get a binary
linked to a shared lib.
