You may have this problem with other software in the future.  You
may want to create a dummy libcrypt.  The simplest way to do it
is:
    # cd /usr/lib
    # ar r libcrypt.a
    # ranlib libcrypt.a


With all these flavors of Linux being different from each other,
perhaps it would be nice to modify the configure script to detect
whether libcrypt exists on the system? (hint hint)
