Description:
Trying to link a program with libmysqld on MacOS 10.3, I get this error:
ld: warning multiple definitions of symbol _qsort

So it looks like the library is being called out of libmysqld.a and is conflicting with what's in the system
libSystem.dylib. This is probably a MacOS-related bug, and I'll be filing a linker error with Apple's
bugreporter, too. Next I'll specifically remove these modules from the MacOS libmysqld.a and see if the
errors go away.
How to repeat:
"dm" is any test program.
make -k dm
g++-3.3 -o dm dm.o ../lib/libstream.a /Users/simsong/mysql-4.1.1-alpha//libmysqld/libmysqld.a
-L../lib -lstream -lss\
