Ah ok, libkpathsea was hidden. Thanks, that got me up and running.

Now, I have to figure out why it doesn't find a plain mem file. I have
added:

   opt->ini_version = 0;
   opt->mem_name = "plain";

but it says "I can't find the 'plain' preload file!". Do I just need to
dig more into the documentation?
