    146146may also need to switch to GCC 3.3 to compile Pugs for now.

     148Note that objects compiled with gcc 4.0 can't be linked with gcc 3.3 objects. This means that if you're embedding a parrot you've built with gcc 4.0, pugs will fail during linking with errors like: 
     149 
     150    ld: Undefined symbols: 
     151    _fprintf$LDBLStub 
     152    _sprintf$LDBLStub 
     153    _vfprintf$LDBLStub 
     154    _snprintf$LDBLStub 
     155    _printf$LDBLStub 
     156 
     157Try building a new parrot with gcc 3.3, then compile Pugs again.
