Latest MOL with 2.4.7 kernel

I used to have a Beige G3 on which I ran LinuxPPC and the then current version of MOL with MacOS 8.6

I have since upgraded to a G4 with the NVIDIA GeForce 2MX (with the associated video problems), and have also switched to YellowDog Linux (KDE problems)
I am running the latest 2.4.7 kernel built on my machine from the bitkeeper linuxppc_2_4 repository.

I cannot get either the mol-0.9.59-1 supplied with YDL 2.0 nor 0.9.60 built from the bitkeeper repository to work
In both cases I get unresolved symbols as below.

Is this a genuine incompatibilty between MOL and the latest kernels, or is there some additional configuration of the kernel required

Any thoughts?
