Hi Tim,

I believe that you can ignore the message. You can also remove libNew.so
from your link sequence. This library is only necessary if you use
the shared memory facility TMapFile.

If you recompile root from the source, all these problems will disappear.
If you do it, I suggest to start from the current version 2.25
