the problem is well known, so is the solution: if you use IBM
ESSL (-D__ESSL) you need to load essl before lapack, as explained
in file make.sys. If you use a version of ESSL that has standard
calls for DSPEV and ZHPEV (as in some weird machines), use
-D__LINUX_ESSL instead.

this sounds unlikely. Please find which call causes the problem.
