Yes. I had the same difficulty on my 3B1 (3.51a OS) also running ksh.

Another problem during congiguration was that Configure incorrectly determined
that utimbuf was defined on this machine and failed to properly set up the
config.h file.  This caused leavembox.c to bomb.  This is compiling with the
shared library, so Configure may actually have found the definition in libc.a
and it was omitted (like a lot of other stuff) from the shared lib.

Other than these two minor problems, everything works great.  Nice job and
a tip of the hat to the development team!
