Well,
I followed Pete's advice (as a matter of fact I had alread tried the
latest August release) and the error output improved :-)
To summarize:
ftape is not compiled in the kernel. The system is a new install of
Redhat-7.3 with the kernel (2.4.18-5)
recompiled without ftape support and without any problems.
The errors are as follows (for the March 21 release - the errors for the
August release are identical):

I hope this is informative, being an amateur C programmer, it does me
little good.
