I'm workingon installing 1.70, I've installed the one patch file and
it looks like all is well up until the final moment when the make
dies with:

gcc -o exim  accept.o child.o daemon.o dbfn.o debug.o deliver.o direct.o directory.o drtables.o exim.o expand.o filter.o globals.o header.o host.o log.o match.o moan.o os.o parse.o queue.o readconf.o regexp.o retry.o rewrite.o route.o search.o smtp_in.o spool_in.o spool_out.o store.o string.o tod.o transport.o tree.o verify.o version.o \

make[1]: *** [exim] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/exim-1.70/build-Linux-i486-linux'
make: *** [go] Error 2



Can anyone offer any insight as to what's going wrong here? I suspect
it's something on the system level as 1.62 fails in the same manner.

Thanks,
