Make errors while building snapgear-4.0.0.7

Apologies if this is a dupe, but sent first before approval on the list:

Hi all,

First time attempting to compile really anything in Linux (why not try
this? <g>), and hitting a wall with a seemingly pam-auth related error.

Build Environment:

- Ubuntu Server 12.04.5 LTS with apt versions of binutils,
build-essentials, gcc, gdb, curses (libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev).  I
downloaded the  arm-linux-tools-20061213.tar.gz
<https://web.archive.org/web/20100715203220/http://ftp.snapgear.org/pub/snapgear/tools/arm-linux/arm-linux-tools-20061213.tar.gz>
from
Web Archive's copy, but have no idea how to use it.

I can get whatever versions of packages needed; just let me know.

Target:

- I have more SG560s than I know what to do with after dismantling a large
site-to-site client network; I'm interested in building simple network
testing appliances (ping/arp-scan/nc/ssh) I can use when configuring
various networking devices, so I think the default libraries and utilities
should be more than adequate in the base image.

What I've done:

- Extracted http://ftp.snapgear.org/pub/snapgear/src/snapgear-4.0.7.tar.bz2 to
my home directory in a sub-folder called uclinux (full path is
/home/gravyface/uclinux/snapgear-4.0.7).  From that directory, ran "make
SecureComputing/SG560_default" which ran for 15 minutes or so, happily
compiling, until it exited with Error 2, and not a whole lot more:

Looks to be pam-related, but with no error, I'm kind of at a loss here.

Thanks in advance!
