no, the latter won't work, because the external depends on functions 
provided by the libtkwidkget-library.
it will therefore refuse to load, unless the dynamic linker is able to 
resolve the missing names during initialisation.

(like the .l_i386 thing)


and i thought, libflext.so was installed into /usr/local/lib, no?
