Hmm, it seems that using '-DWITH_ALL_OPTIONS=ON' causes 
'-fvisibility=hidden -fvisibility-inlines-hidden' to be added to 
CMAKE_C_FLAGS and CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS which seems to cause the 'undefined 
reference' failure. Preventing the addition to the 'flags' allows the 
build to proceed to a successful completion.

Not sure what consequences/benefits/drawbacks maybe or even if, by using 
'-DWITH_ALL_OPTIONS=ON', I'm actually getting 'WITH_SHADOW', which is 
what got me here in the first place.

Cheers,
Mike.
