It looks/sounds like the ABI for C++ linkage broke between the point 
releases.  This is really easy to trigger, unfortunately, due to the 
design of the C++ interface.  A recompile of the application 
against the updated headers should fix it.

I see two problematic commits:
 2ef222a58c3801eaac5a6d52dda2de1ffe37407b (mempool change)
 0048e6a58c7cdf3b3d98df575bc47db8397cd5a9 (buffer::list change)

I pushed a branch wip-abi-luminous to 
	https://shaman.ceph.com/builds/ceph/

You can either try that build and see if it fixes it, and/or rebuild your 
application.  Please let us know if either works!

Thanks-
sage


Both are probably straightforward to fix... I'll push a test branch
