after wasting a few hours porting from IRIX to LINUX i found a bug that
should be better advertised so that it doesn't eat up other programmers
time!!!!

read below... carefully!!!!!!

C++-based programs linking with the IRIS Performer libraries must compile
and link optimized. If the programs are not compiled optimized, the
compiler will report "undefined reference" errors when linking
the program. Note that with gcc you can compile with both -g and -O
simultaneously. That will give you a debugged, optimized program that you
can use with gdb to provide a stack trace or do your debugging.

this is a major oversight that needs to be VERY clear, or people like me
get very confused.

it's ok now though!
