It seems like the program is not compiled correctly. The undefined
symbol is in $prefix/lib/libxffm_calls.so. The probable reason for the
crash is that your compilation is broken. Try again and keep eye open
for any problems while compiling the stuff in the xffm/libs directory.
Otherwise you might try a precompiled binary. I believe there is one
such available for SUSE.
