[Ipopt] Problem running Ipopt matlab interface

Thanks for the answers. I built a static version of ipopt. But now I
get an error when compiling the Matlabinterface:

This was my configure call for compiling ipopt:
../configure --prefix=/homes/numerik/paul/lib/Ipopt \
CXX=/usr/site-local/bin/g++-4.2 \
CC=/usr/site-local/bin/gcc-4.2 \
F77=/usr/bin/gfortran-4.6 \
ADD_CXXFLAGS="-fPIC -fexceptions -DFUNNY_LAPACK_FINT" \
ADD_CFLAGS="-fPIC -fexceptions" \
ADD_FFLAGS="-fPIC -fexceptions" \
--with-matlab-home=/net/matlab/Matlab2011b \
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib64 -lblas_pic" \
-disable-shared

Ipopt compiled fine, but when I try to compile the matlab interface I
get an error:
