I compiled this for my server today, and thought it might be worth
putting on record here a problem and its solution.
Problem: "make check" fails due to a bug in the nis subsystem.
Solution: Apply a patch made available by Andreas Jaeger on various
mailing lists (but, as I recall, not on this one).
