Should have added that all dependancies are installed and 0.13.8 compiles without any issues

Same with rTorrent 0.9.6

Works with rTorrent 0.9.7 and lib 0.13.7

you cannot mix old and new beyond certain limits. and I'm quite sure this would be a "won't fix" if issues were maintained.

Agree completely. However in case someone has a workaround. I tried to get some libs from debian 8 to 10, did not help. For debugging purposes i wanted to check with 0.9.6

About the only workable path in those situations is to engage Docker to go back to an older gcc (which is the main axis to consider here, libs can be solved by other means).
