This is an odd one.  There were no errors for other MBRange functions?

I haven't worked with AIX much and don't have access to an AIX machine right
now.  Is there any significance to the '.' prefix on the function name?  Did
ld provide any more information with the above error message, such as where
it encountered the reference to .MBRange::subset_by_type that it could not
resolve?
