looking for libc in wrong place

Hi,
        I have just built and installed ups 3.34 on my Redhat linux 6.1 machine
and I get the following oddity.. I can run ups fine but when debugging it
always stops and says can not open shared library /usr/lib/libc.so.6 This
library (as well as libm.so.6) lives in /lib not /usr/lib.

        I can work around this by adding load /lib/libc.so.6 in my ~/.upsint
file but I still get a problem when debugging my code as one of my routines
calls getpwuid(getuid()) and ups stops on this line (with no reported error)
the stack looks like the following

                Functions
                  main
                    my_func
                      <bad text address>
                      <bad text address>

But if I press continue twice I can carry one debugging as normal..

        Any one have any ideas..

                                                Thanks in advance

                                                                        James
