A = absolute symbol
B = bss (uninitialized data space) symbol 
D= data object symbol 
F = file symbol. 
N = symbol has no type 
S = section symbol 
T = text symbol (function) 
U = undefined

letters are in lowercase for local binding symbol, uppercase for 
external or weak binding symbol.

As I'm building OBOS libnet.so on a BONE system, I don't have this link 
error, because the BONE libnet.so don't contains 
a _res symbol. I didn't have the "Symbol not found" issue running our 
net tools too, for same reason.
Sorry guys for not having test both build and execution on a net_server 
system...
