I'm running debian jessie which has 1.6 as package. Compiled but not
installed 1.7 from source. I did apt-get build-dep nmh first, which gets
me build-dependencies for 1.6.

Running with PATH="<src>/uip:<src>/sbr:$PATH"

Copied the etc/* files to where the binaries are looking for them,
(checked with strace ) but the build fails during tests with the
attached log. I thought that was a false alarm, but maybe not?

Anyway, as per now I get
