Are you using the Tcl, Tk, and BLT binaries, too?  I think this
symptom can also occur if initialization of the shared library fails
to initialized, and that can happen if its dependencies are not
satisified.  Running `ldd' might give some clues:

$ ldd /opt/SDGswarm/2.1.1/lib/libkaffeswarm.so

To do this you'll need to configure your GCC to use GNU binutils (the
--with-gnu-as and --with-gnu-ld options), or else the Swarm shared library
initialization won't work right.  I don't mean the behavior will be
suboptimal, I mean it will be broken.
