Nope.  Here is the snapshot with ldflags patch:
        http://footstool.stanford.edu/~blp/psppire-ldflags.tar.gz

If it works for you, John or I will push it to the stable branch.

Ah, this is a change in gnulib that we haven't dealt with yet.
Thanks for pointing it out.  I pushed the appended patch to
stable.

By the way, I'm now doing daily snapshots.  They show up at
        http://pspp.benpfaff.org/~blp/
for now.  This patch will be in the next one for stable
(20081104).

    Use gnulib 'close' module, for compatibility with newest Gnulib.
    
    Otherwise at link we get an undefined reference to symbol
    _close_used_without_requesting_gnulib_module_close.
    
    Thanks to Michel Boaventura for reporting the problem.
