Are you *sure*? I don't know exactly what name you searched for, nor how
you searched for it, but this is just the sort of error message I'd expect
to see if you did have an old libparrot.so somewhere else on your system.
To be specific: The first 'undefined reference' is to Parrot_new. It
should be in src/embed.o and also in blib/lib/libparrot.so. What do you
get for the following commands:
nm src/embed.o | grep 'Parrot_new$'
nm blib/lib/libparrot.so | grep 'Parrot_new$'
