Was this the output of "make check" in gnuradio-core, or were you
trying to run a qa_*.py by hand from the command line?  If the latter,
you'll need to have done a make install before that will work.  ("make
check" (actually run_tests) jacks around with PYTHONPATH so that it
explicitly references the NON-INSTALLED version of libgnuradio-core)

Is your build tree up-to-date?
The thing it's claiming is missing was added on July 30, 2005
(gnuradio-core/src/lib/general/gr_float_to_char.{h,cc,i})
