[BitVisor-devel-en:58] Re: Multiple definition of symbols error when compiling BitVisor 1.4

[O. Meteer]

Dear developers,

I tried compiling BitVisor 1.4 on Ubuntu 12.04 with gcc 4.6.3 and 
everthing compiled just fine. I installed gcc 4.6.4 on my Arch 
installation and I get the exact same errors which led me to believe 
that the problem lies somewhere else. Other differences between the two 
machines is that on Ubuntu binutils is version 2.22 and on Arch binutils 
is version 2.24. It happens as the linker wants to create the 
core/output.o file. Any suggestions?

With kind regards,
Oguz Meteer
