It's a patched Redhat 9 box. (Most notable: I had to build my own libbind
because libresolv doesn't export some of the functions you're using, and none of
the OS native packages includes libbind.)

Given the last line of the error message, yes.

/usr/include/sys/syslog.h:188: prototype declaration

Ahh, now I see the cause.. libbind is breaking it because it requires pthread:

configure:5329: result: no
configure:5241: checking for vsyslog
configure:5298: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -Wall -I/usr/lib//include/bind
-I/usr/lib//include   -L/usr/lib//lib -Wl,--rpath=/usr/lib//lib conftest.c
-lbind  >&5

You might want to try to find a way to drop -lbind from the configure tests, or
add -lpthread.
