I have no problems with build on RH 9 - both for HEAD and r130. I don't
have any RH 8 systems, but I did at the time 1.3.0 was released, and
ISTM I tested the build on it as well.

I note the check below has the value of the ps check cached -- that
should not be the case in 1.3.0 (actually, I don't think it ever was).

So this check apparently reuses bad values from a previously cached run?

Also, on RH9 I get /bin/ps rather than /usr/bin/ps

I also get /bin/ps on rh 7.2 -- there is no ps in /usr/bin on either box
-- if I had to guess, i'd say that either this box has been hardened or
it has been cracked leaving sort sort of root kit.
