Run
./configure
as root.

Then check that include/config.h is appropriate for your system (as
regards to seteuid stuff):

ie.:
on linux2.2.x/glibc2.1 I have
/* #undef USE_SETEUID */
#define USE_SETRESUID 1
/* #undef USE_SETREUID */
/* #undef USE_SETUIDX */

on linux2.0.x/libc5 I have
#define USE_SETEUID 1
/* #undef USE_SETRESUID */
/* #undef USE_SETREUID */
/* #undef USE_SETUIDX */

if configure fails to chose the right definitions for your system,
correct them yourself before make.
