Hi Jan, Seeing how this PR is coming up on 2 years and nobody has stepped in to maintain this port after gahr@ released it, maybe we should think about deprecating the port? Is it usable in other ways? Or do we have to limit it to a static library only? If nobody is going to spend time on this port, what should we do with it?

It seems unsatisfied references are treated differently between static and shared variants. Stripping all symbols from object files before linking the library *sometimes* helps. $ echo 'int main() { }' | cc -xc -o /dev/null - -L/usr/local/lib -labacus-osi /usr/local/lib/libabacus-osi.so: undefined reference to `ABA_SUB::generateLp()' /usr/local/lib/libabacus-osi.so: undefined reference to `ABA_MASTER::_initializeLpParameters()' /usr/local/lib/libabacus-osi.so: undefined reference to `ABA_MASTER::_printLpParameters()' /usr/local/lib/libabacus-osi.so: undefined reference to `ABA_MASTER::_createLpMasters()' /usr/local/lib/libabacus-osi.so: undefined reference to `ABA_MASTER::_deleteLpMasters()' /usr/local/lib/libabacus-osi.so: undefined reference to `ABA_MASTER::_outputLpStatistics()' /usr/local/lib/libabacus-osi.so: undefined reference to `ABA_MASTER::_setDefaultLpParameters()' The issue existed before ports r384953 i.e., abacus-3.2.b1_4 is also affected.
