I've found more games having this problem (because of the reverse video title):

Can you verify that you don't have an older copy of libgarglk.so somewhere in 
the ldconfig search list?

The garglk_set_reversevideo_stream() function was added to glk.h recently, and 
an older copy of the library wouldn't have it defined.

I think it's the second time I'm tricked with this kind of issue. Yes, I had 
the older copy of libgarglk.so in my $PATH, provided by jacl... sorry.

No worries, it bites me too from time to time.

I added the STATIC build option for this exact reason; if you put STATIC=1 in 
~/.bashrc (or wherever), jam will build statically linked binaries. Makes them 
much larger but generally more convenient, in that there's no libgarglk.so to 
track. (The binaries still link to shared libraries for the other dependencies.)

I don't know if it's an appropriate setting for release but it's handy to have 
around.
