LinuxQuestions.org - Problems compiling with Fedora's change to linker

I'm having problem compiling QJoyPad in Fedora 16.

I have libX11-devel. I also have the file /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6.

Code:

bull•Downloads/qjoypad-4.1.0/src» ./config [7:30:12]



Configuring QJoyPad installation...

------------------------------------------------------------



Device directory: /dev/input

-- Devices will be looked for in:

/dev/input/js0

/dev/input/js1

etc.



Prefix directory: /usr/local

-- Files to be installed in:

/usr/local/bin

/usr/local/doc

/usr/local/share/pixmaps



---------------------------------------------------------

If these settings are okay, go ahead and run 'make' and

then 'make install'.



To make changes, run ./config --help for details.



bull•Downloads/qjoypad-4.1.0/src» make [7:30:16]

/usr/bin/ld: note: 'XKeycodeToKeysym' is defined in DSO /usr/lib64/libX11.so.6 so try adding it to the linker command line

/usr/lib64/libX11.so.6: could not read symbols: Invalid operation

I'm not exactly sure what all the info in the those links mean. However I am sure this issue is fedora specific. A friend compiled under Slackware without a problem. What do I need to do to make this work?
