 Looks like a problem with the libgsl library because reports like this
 (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=549435):

 "In upstream libgsl, version 1.13, the GSL_CONST_CGSM_GAUSS symbol was
 removed. The attached patch fixes the problem. The correct solution is
 to remove the reference to the symbol entirely, as upstream says the
 value of the constant wasn't reliable."
