I had the same issue with my installation of Fedora 3.  I've figured out 
 that it seems to be due to having the same local string constants in 
two functions.  I've attached a patch that fixes the compilation/linking 
problem but I think this might be a compiler problem.

My gcc -v output is:
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.3/specs
Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man 
--infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix 
--disable-checking --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit 
--disable-libunwind-exceptions --enable-java-awt=gtk 
--host=i386-redhat-linux
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.4.3 20050227 (Red Hat 3.4.3-22.fc3)
