This means you're linking an executable against a library that was built 
with -module (ie, a library designed to be dlopened at runtime).

Some platforms don't allow this, and as of libtool 1.5 they warn about 
it (it used to not say anything, but this behavior has never been 
portable...)

The fix is usually to either break the bits out of 
libartscontrolsupport.so that need to be shared into another library, or 
to build it as a shared library instead of a runtime-loadable module 
(remove any -module lines from it's LDFLAGS and change any $(KDE_PLUGIN) 
bits to $(KDE_RPATH) if necessary)
