undefined reference to `_et_list'

[Gaurav Gupta]

I am building krb5-1.6.1.tar.gz on a 64 bit CentOS 4.1. I am getting the
following error when I specify the '--with-system-et' option to use the
system libcom_err library:

making all in lib/rpc/unit-test...

../../../lib/libgssapi_krb5.so: undefined reference to `_et_list'

I checked and the /lib64/libcom_err.so.2 on the system has '_et_list'
defined:
# nm --dynamic /lib64/libcom_err.so.2

When I build without the '--with-system-et' and let Kerberos build its own
libcom_err.so.3 it builds fine. The weird part is that it builds fine on
a 32 bit system, which makes me wonder if I am not specifying any option
right:

Here is the config options I am using:

cd src; ./configure \
            --prefix=/usr \
            --exec-prefix=/usr \
            --bindir=$(MY_INSTALL_ROOT)/usr/kerberos/bin \
            --sbindir=$(MY_INSTALL_ROOT)/usr/kerberos/sbin \
            --sysconfdir=$(MY_INSTALL_ROOT)/etc \
            --datadir=$(MY_INSTALL_ROOT)/usr/kerberos/share \
            --includedir=$(MY_INSTALL_ROOT)/usr/include \
            --libdir=$(MY_INSTALL_ROOT)/usr/lib \
            --libexecdir=$(MY_INSTALL_ROOT)/usr/libexec \
            --localstatedir=$(MY_INSTALL_ROOT)/var/kerberos \
            --sharedstatedir=$(MY_INSTALL_ROOT)/usr/com \
            --mandir=$(MY_INSTALL_ROOT)/usr/kerberos/man \
            --infodir=$(MY_INSTALL_ROOT)/usr/share/info \
            CC=gcc \
            CFLAGS="$(CFLAGS)" \
            CPPFLAGS="$(CPPFLAGS)" \
            OPENLDAP_PLUGIN="$(OPENLDAP_PLUGIN)" \
            SS_LIB="-lss -lcurses" \
            --enable-shared \
            --with-krb4 \
            --with-system-et \
            --with-system-ss \
            --with-netlib=-lresolv \
