libbind.so unresolved symbols - update

Hello again,

in my earlier post, I described a problem I'm experiencing with a fresh
compile of the latest sendmail on tru64 5.1b with bind 9.2.2
I keep getting this error:

/usr/sbin/sendmail: /sbin/loader: Fatal Error: call to unresolved symbol
from /usr/local/lib/libbind.so (pc=0x30000035364)

I have the bind libs in /usr/local/bind/lib and its includes in
/usr/local/bind/include and I was adding the extra LD_LIBRARY_PATH to help
this to be found in the sendmail startup script in /sbin/init.d

I now removed that extra LD_LIBRARY_PATH declaration from the startup
script, after trying different things to figure out what symbol is missing
without success and I symlinked all that bind stuff into /usr/local/lib and
/usr/local/include and I recompiled sendmail again.
There is no complaint from the linker during the sendmail compile, which
goes all the way and I can then install it and the error is showing up at
runtime.

Here's something that may help a bit:

# sendmail -d0.10

3430:/usr/sbin/sendmail: /sbin/loader: Fatal Error: call to unresolved
symbol from /usr/local/lib/libbind.so (pc=0x30000035364)


I have those files from bind 9.2.2

/usr/local/bind/lib # ls
libbind.a libdns.a libisc.a libisccc.a
libisccfg.a liblwres.a
libbind.la libdns.la libisc.la libisccc.la
libisccfg.la liblwres.la
libbind.so libdns.so libisc.so libisccc.so
libisccfg.so liblwres.so
libbind.so.1.1.0 libdns.so.8.0.1 libisc.so.6.2.0
libisccc.so.0.0.1 libisccfg.so.0.0.4 liblwres.so.2.1.1

which I symlinked into /usr/local/lib
and those folders:

/usr/local/bind/include # ls
dns dst isc isccc isccfg lwres

which I symlinked into /usr/local/include

Doing an nm on the libbind.so in question doesn't help, it only lists the
symbols but not where they're expected to be coming from.

The error from the loader isn't giving anything that can help trace the
problem at its source, so what else can I try to get at least the name of
the symbol that's causing this error??

I tried using the environment variable _RLD_ARGS="-interact" and tried it
with -v and a few other options, but although it gives out a lot of extra
info, it's still not giving the info I really need.

What can I do?
