nl_langinfo undefined (it was Unexpected error in "make builkernel")

Hello:

After doing what you told me (about the "compat" directory)
I've got this problem with gnome applications:

jrh_at_pepitogrillo:~$ gnome-about
/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.200: Undefined symbol 
"nl_langinfo"

I'm going to do the "make world", perhaps after doing "make world" this
error will be fixed. I've tried to move "libglib" to "/usr/lib/compat" but
I get the same error (I don't know if it's enought to make the move, so
I've executed "ldconfig" but no success)

Don't worry, I will tell you if I still get this error when the system gets
upgraded, this is only an informational mail, tough any help is always useful 
:)

Bye!
