Thanks. I was following the build instruction. Yesterday I was trying
it on Ubuntu 11.4 and found one lib package is too old. So
dist-upgraded to 12.04 and compiles again now.

Hopefully have all dependent libs now.

Also it is so important that do a clean build after tool chain and
everything is upgraded. I was puzzled by some error from libtool
commands. :(
