Arla Compiling problem that I can't seem to fix

Use nm instead. Example:

$ nm -o /usr/*/lib/*.a | grep realmofhost
/usr/athena/lib/libkafs.a:afskrb.o:         U krb_realmofhost
/usr/athena/lib/libkafs.a:common.o:         U krb_realmofhost
/usr/athena/lib/libkrb.a:get_krbrlm.o:         U krb_realmofhost
/usr/athena/lib/libkrb.a:getrealm.o:00000250 T krb_realmofhost

Which means that only /usr/athena/lib/libkrb.a really has the
definition, the other references are only places where the symbol is
used. 

Follow up question: I use the krb_realmofhost from KTH-KRB (V4). Where
do/should the MIT KRB users find it? This seems to be a question
and answer shat should go into a FAQ.
