I am glad things are working for you.  However, I'd suggest NOT setting 
LD_PRELOAD.  That causes the BLRC library to be loaded into everything 
you execute.  We've not yet tested well enough you be certain this is 
100% safe.  I suspect that the LD_PRELOAD might be causing your problem 
with building the LAM examples.
