thanks for reporting back, and sorry for not finding the time to respond
to you earlier. In unstable, Debian is currently staging a new version
of gcc and the c++ standard library. This has unforseen effects on many
library packages, and in turn, causes breakage for programs such as mpd
that make use of a wide range of shared libraries to implement support
for different audio file formats and encodings. This transition is
not over yet, and can be expected to last for another few weeks.

I'm keeping this bug open for the time being so that others experiencing
an "undefined symbol error" can find a lead as to its cause.
