I'm am trying to compile the latest version of Exim (4.80.1) and am
getting the error below on compilation.
Version 4.77 builds fine on the system (FreeBSD 6.1 - yes I know :-)
but I cannot build (with the same Makefile/eximon.conf) either 4.80
or 4.80.1. We have no fancy requirements in the Makefile; it's a fairly
basic config.
Here's the error:
=======================================================================
# make
>>> Creating links to source files...
>>> New Makefile & lookups/Makefile.predynamic installed
>>> Use "make makefile" if you need to force rebuilding of the makefile
/bin/sh ../scripts/Configure-os.h
/bin/sh ../scripts/Configure-os.c
gcc buildconfig.c
/bin/sh ../scripts/Configure-config.h "make"
`buildconfig' is up to date.
Building configuration file config.h >>> config.h built >>> version 4.80.1 #2
/bin/sh ../scripts/Configure-eximon >>> eximon script built

Any ideas what it's or I'm missing
