Weird OS == Weird errors... (in this case "weird" == "not something
others have")

But the error message is pretty explicit.  HylaFAX needs "strftime",
and it's not found it in either the normal libc, or with -lintl.

If you look in config.log, you can probably see exactly how it's
trying to compile/link to find strftime.  The compiler/linker might
even emit helpfull error messages that can be seen in the log.

You'll have to know how to get strftime symbol, and add whatever
necessary libs to MACHDEPLIBS so HylaFAX knows how to find that
symbol.
