it should work if you compile with 'make TARGET=linux-release', because 
the weaving process (for the woven source code) was done with the 
linux-release configuration. The problem is that we don't want to make 
woven code for all possible configurations. We simply selected one.

If you want a non-release (debug) build, you have to weave Puma with the 
binary ac++ for linux on your own or ask for it directly.
