Comment 1 Darren Tucker 2007-11-06 10:49:45 AEDT 
What exact platform is this, and what arguments did you give to configure?

The lines referred to are inside an "#ifdef BSD_AUTH", so you can try "./configure --without-bsd-auth".
Comment 2 Pierre 2007-11-15 08:33:41 AEDT 
It's a GNU/Linux system

I specified the --with-bsd-auth option.
Without it I don't have this error anymore.
Comment 3 Darren Tucker 2007-11-15 10:54:08 AEDT 
So your system apparently doesn't have BSD Auth support... why did you specify --with-bsd-auth in the first place?
