Strictly following the documentation does not work:

sworddragon@ubuntu:~/tmp$ gcc -shared -o nobuffer.so interceptor.c
gcc: error: interceptor.c: No such file or directory
gcc: fatal error: no input files
compilation terminated.


Trying to fix this results in this error:

sworddragon@ubuntu:~/tmp$ gcc -shared -o nobuffer.so nobuffer.c
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccgArKHv.o: relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against undefined symbol `stdout@@GLIBC_2.2.5' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
