SSH2 Compile Errors in upgraded RH 6.2 system

[jcallen at narsil.com (Jerry Callen)]

This might be some kind of configure problem. The code in question is
guarded by #ifdef HAVE_UTMPX_H, which on my ancient RedHat system is
NOT set in my SSH2 build directory. Look in /usr/include for utmpx.h.
If it's not there (maybe it was added between RH 5.2 and 6.2?)
then this is the problem.

Did you re-run configure before rebuilding?
