  Actually, I've gotten that problem before, and this is not the same thing.
I think the one you're talking about came from having the wrong version of
the linker, and would thus always happen. This only occurs spuriously, on
commands that worked mere moments ago and that work again later, just not at
the moment that I get the error.

Do you have any other suggestions? I really appreciate your help.
