Are you *absolutely* sure you're doing this in a completely clean build directory?  Is it
at all possible you've got droppings from a previous compile of Xastir on your system before
the upgrade?

That would be my first guess.

We did *once* see an error like this back when our version of rtree conflicted with
installed versions of rtree from grass or gdal.  That was hard to track down, and was 
due to our linking in a library that had a conflicting definition of a function that we
defined ourselves.  That would be my second guess.
