Are you using gcc to link your application?

At least with older versions of gcc, if you use gcc to build the library,
you also need to use gcc to link the application (or you have to figure
out how to link the application with libgcc).  The library may contain
unresolved references to gcc helper functions.

I believe the most notable example of this, eprintf, is gone in current
versions of gcc, but there are still other examples of this that aren't
encountered as frequently.
