Hi Steffen,
i managed to run all on pure 64.
But now i am porting to the openpkg cvs tree.
My way was very hard. My dist is debian etch pure 64.
First of all the problem is, that some configure options has to be patched.
But the main thing is on the pthread support for db4 and openldap.
What's your dist ?
If it's debian, i can upload the complete rpms on your server to try out.

kind regards.
