Bug#507339: [libc6-dev] Error while lining undefined reference to _dl_close@GLIBC_PRIVATE'

[Ido Kanner <kannerido@013.net>]

Package: libc6-dev
Version: 2.7-16
Severity: important

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
When I try to link some programs I'm having the following error messages:

/usr/x86_64-linux-gnu/lib64/libdl.so.2: undefined reference to
`_dl_open@GLIBC_PRIVATE'
/usr/x86_64-linux-gnu/lib64/libdl.so.2: undefined reference to
`_dl_close@GLIBC_PRIVATE'

When using objdump on libdl.so.2 I found the following:

# objdump -R -r -t -T -G -x /usr/x86_64-linux-gnu/lib64/libdl.so.2 |
grep GLIBC_PRIVATE

Note: This error exists in almost all programs I'm trying to compile. The only 
programs that I do not find this problem are on programs that does not 
require me to link to any addiotnal libraries.
