Bizarre. Did your manual test include the same library options (-lssl
etcetera) that configure was using?

If memory serves, __muldi3 is a subroutine in libgcc, which ought to be
automatically included in any link performed by gcc. It seems on this
evidence that one or more of the libraries being linked is somehow
interfering with libgcc ... but I'm darned if I see the problem ...
