Thanks! I linked with -shared and that fixed the LOAD problem. Now I get
an error saying the function cannot be found in the file...

ERROR: Can't find function bool2int in file /usr/local/pgsql/procs/bool2int.o

I have tried every linker flag possible, nothing helps. Seems funny that a
function cannot be located in a library file?!?!

Any *more* insight whould be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Matthew
