Build farm error reports

[John H Terpstra - Samba Team]

Folks,

The load on my desktop workstation became too high so the build gollum
has been moved to a virtual machine.  Gollum has been reporting a number
of compile-time errors for quite a while now that I would like to iron
out if possible.


1. Building of the talloc target reports the following:

configure: WARNING: the provided readdir() is broken
Makefile:29: rules.mk: No such file or directory
Makefile:30: talloc.mk: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target `talloc.mk'.  Stop.
Makefile:29: rules.mk: No such file or directory
Makefile:30: talloc.mk: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target `talloc.mk'.  Stop.

Why does our build process believe that the readdir() function is broken
on OpenSUSE 11.1?  What can I do to fix it?



2. Building of the samba_4_0_test target generates many compiler
warnings and several tests fail. Have I not installed some dependencies?
If so, can anyone point me to what may be missing?


3. Building of the samba_3_X_test target produces the following report:
configure: WARNING: the provided readdir() is broken

In order to get ride of the clock skew ntp sync has been reconfigured.
Our old friend "readdir() is broken" is visiting us here too.  I'd
appreciate some pointers in how to fix that.



Sorry to be so verbose.

Thanks for any help in resolving these issues.
