The library the linker is looking for, libdl.a, I strongly suspect was
supposed to have been made previously in the make. Go to the top of
the ADL directory tree and say "find . -name libdl.a -print".
If it isn't there, then either the make of it was skipped or it
failed. Try to find the target libdl.a in one of ADL's Makefile's.
