Yes, I was able to get access to a x86_64 system and reproduce.

Those are all very tough warnings to get rid off. The undefined-non-weak-symbol
errors are related to circular dependencies. I asked on the list, but got little
insights :

http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2006-September/msg00173.html

Essentially this is due to the poor organization of aqsis source code, and has
all since been fixed in CVS. The /usr/lib64 rpath error is caused by fltk-config
(bug 199657). Now none of these warnings/errors are preventing aqsis from
working fine (try run it on ribfiles/vase.rib from the tarball, looks nice).

So the choice seems to be

1) either package the stable 1.0 release and live with the oddities of the build
system, the undefined symbols mean a (very slight) slower launch time.

2) package stable 1.0 with all sorts of patches to move code around and get rid
of the warnings.

3) package a CVS snapshot that has a smoother build but might have all sorts of
other problem, it not being a stable release...

I'll veto point 2 right away :-) Debian does 3. I'm hapy with 1 or 3.
