I stumbled upon that independently when working on my pretty printers (and on the same day Lionel did, by some weird coincidence :) The problem was that linkoo only linked libs with extension .so, but most of the libs in ure/lib have extension .so.3 . It should be fixed in master by commit 3c8f40e039b4d32cced201022050769eb40a3a49 . It ignores the MACOSX case, because I think MACOSX does not have versioned libs. If I am mistaken, this must be changed too.
