Yep! I started to suspect it also, once I saw thet the warning and 
error are unrelated

My error was to do just ./configure, make, make install and not think ;)

As i dit it on a redhat 5.0 system, i ended up with old (1.0.1) libs in
/usr/lib
and new ones in /usr/local/lib, and when i made the examples they
probably linked 
to old libs

once i did ./configure --prefix=/usr everything started to work!
