Well, I'm not really sure about where to go from here.

1) you could try compiling as 'root' on your system to see if that's the  
issue
2) we could check for same files with optimizations turned down or off
3) we could check for differing links to C and library files
4) we could compare sha1 or md5 sums against C and library files
5) we could compare sha1 or md5 sums of the VLocity .iso image
6) you could blame something on my machine or version of VLocity and just  
forget it
7) you could try re-installing VLocity using the same image as I used

The website currently has VLocity 7.0:
VL64-7.0.1-STD-FINAL.iso

I have a whole bunch of .iso's for Vector Linux, mostly 32-bit
versions, not 64-bit.  So, I'm fairly sure I installed this:

VL64-6.0-STD-A0.9.iso
  sha1sum cdf42b3c6c23b558c68e1685e2398c5ace946bbf
  md5sum 14f38d60a71f5754ce4646b876323ffc

I can't find VL64-6.0-STD-A0.9.iso archived on:
  vectorlinux.com
  vectorlinux.osuosl.org
  vlcore.vectorlinux.com

Google finds these two sites which claim they have it:
http://ftp2.gr.freebsd.org/pub/dist/vectorlinux/Uelsk8s/iso-test/
http://www.mmnt.net/db/0/0/ftp7.freebsd.org/sites/vectorlinux.com/Uelsk8s/iso-test

I've not downloaded from them to test availability of the file.
If they have them, check the sums to make sure it's the same.
