[Gllug] C libraries on Red Hat 7.1

[Julie Hui]

I suppose after all this time lurking it's time for this newbie to finally 
ask a question.

I popped Red Hat 7.1 onto a laptop and the boss man gave a hand picking out 
which packages I needed installed for our current project.  My problem and 
question revolves around some strange output that I'm getting from C 
programs that I've been compiling with gcc:

18370:  symbol=malloc;  lookup in file=./freader
18370:  symbol=malloc;  lookup in file=/lib/i686/libc.so.6
18370:  symbol=malloc;  lookup in file=/lib/ld-linux.so.2
18370:  binding file ./freader to /lib/i686/libc.so.6: normal symbol 
'malloc' [GLIBC_2.0]

I can only guess that there's a screwup somewhere in the install of the c 
library files, but I'm scratching my head as to a fix.  The program runs 
fine on a friend's system (unfortunately I can't remember what flavour of 
linux he's running these days).

Any suggestions?

- Jules
