I think a contributor had a look into this some time ago, and came to
conclusions, but I don't remember, I'd have to dig in the archives :/

This problem has been around for weeks. Would it be possible for an
OpenGL person to look into this?

Might be a symbol redefinition problem in uClibc, when linking
statically. I remember reading some posts about this on the uClibc
mailing list.

Yesterday evening, I've started looking into this. Here is a summary of
my findings.

So, we're building for Blackfin FLAT, so static only build. ZeroMQ is a
library written in C++, and czmq is a library around it written in C.
The configure script tests whether a simple application that calls
zmq_init() can be linked properly against the ZeroMQ library. This test
is done by compiling the test application using 'gcc', not 'g++'. While
this test works fine in dynamic link mode (because libzmq as a NEEDED
on libstdc++), it fails in static link mode because it links with
-lzmq, but not -lstdc++. A quick test shows that linking against
-lstdc++ would solve the problem.

So there are apparently two issues:

 1/ The libzmq.pc file does not have a Libs.private: -lsdtc++

 2/ The configure.ac script of czmq does not call pkg-config with the
    --static option. Apparently, the logic in pkg.m4 is not even aware
    that it should use --static.

I must say I'm not sure how to fix the problem properly.

OpenCV problem, to be looked at by Samuel I believe:

The architecture of your CPU (arc) is not supported by this configure script
It seems nobody has ported MPlayer to your OS or CPU type yet.
