[Greylist-users] Compilation of Sendmail::Milter 0.18 on EM64T

[Martin Svensson]

Hi all,

I know that this might be slightly OT but it's the best location I've 
found so far. (Google didn't give me much help)

I'm trying to compile Sendmail::Milter package for an installation of 
the greylisting package on a RedHat ES EL 3.0 update 3 EM64T version. 
I'm using the bundled sendmail version, and the milter libraries are 
working fine (using amavisd-new without any trouble so far).

When I'm trying to compile it, I get the following output from "make":
-------

If anyone has an idea on solving this issue, please let me know.

Thanks in advance all.
