That could be a problem with the underlying C math library. Judging
from the Linux and Solaris man pages, finite() seems to be a
non-standard BSD extension.  C99 has isfinite(), but that's not
universally supported yet.  I'd say you need to figure out where the
dependency on the symbol _finite is introduced and perhaps replace it
with a call to isfinite() or fpclassify().
