I should give some more details (when will I learn?)

I am using gentoo current, this comes from emerge info:

System uname: 2.6.10-gentoo-r4 i686 Pentium III (Coppermine)
Gentoo Base System version 1.6.9
distcc 2.16 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) 
[enabled]
ccache version 2.3 [enabled]
Autoconf: sys-devel/autoconf-2.59-r6,sys-devel/autoconf-2.13
Automake: 
sys-devel/automake-1.7.9-r1,sys-devel/automake-1.8.5-r3,sys-devel/automake-1.5,sys-devel/automake-1.4_p6,sys-devel/automake-1.6.3,sys-devel/automake-1.9.4
Binutils: sys-devel/binutils-2.15.92.0.2-r1
Headers:  sys-kernel/linux26-headers-2.6.8.1-r2

I am using glpk 4.7

glibc version : glibc-2.3.4.20050125
gcc version: gcc-3.3.5-r1

If you need any more info, please let me know.

I commented the definition of srandom and it worked, but I hardly believe that 
is the right solution
