Strange, generate_wellknown_sids() is certainly present in lib/sids.c.
Investigating, please stand by....

OK.  I got a compile error on bin/svcctld but it was a different one.
Looks like someone's in the middle of updating something there.  I'm
appending what I believe is a correct patch for my compile error.
(Note that there will be other instances of the same problem elsewhere
in the source.)

Yes, but there are many compile errors that *are* dependent on the OS.
Maybe if you had posted the actual error the first time.... (:
