No, it doesn't fail at link time, but rather at compile time, so -Bsymbolic 
wouldn't help[1]:

cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.. -I.. -DSRCDIR=\""."\" -I/usr/include/libxml2   -pthread -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include       -g -O2 -g -Wall -O2 		-Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations 		-Wmissing-prototypes -Wnested-externs -Wpointer-arith -D_REENTRANT -c 
context-test.c
context-test.c:31: error: conflicting types for 'dprintf'

Maybe there's a way to disable the eglibc prototype of getline, but I haven't 
found one :(.

Cheers,
     Stefan.
