After applying this change to Makefile.in, it configures and builds
on Alpha RedHat 6.2:

24c24,27
< CFLAGS=@CFLAGS@ -I. -I$(srcdir) $(PATHS) @DEFS@
---
> CFLAGS=@CFLAGS@ -I. -I$(srcdir) $(PATHS) @DEFS@ \

>       -DOPENSSL_OTHER_DEFINES

I configured like this:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/openssh --sysconfdir=/etc/openssh \
        --with-random=/dev/random --with-ipv4-default \
        --with-ssl-dir=/usr/local/openssl \
        --with-tcp-wrappers \
	--with-default-path=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/openssh/bin

My openssl is trusty old 0.9.5a built with RSAREF2 hacked to know
that a "UINT4" is 32 bits long.

I installed over the top of my 2.1.1p4 setup, restarted sshd, and 
tried to ssh to a Solaris 2.6 Sun running 2.1.1p4.  It took several 
minutes to get to a shell prompt.  Retrying the ssh command with 
"-v" showed multiple long pauses while it was seeding the random 
number generator.  After it finally logged me in on the Sun, it
all seemed to be working OK.

Did I miss a step?  2.1.1p4 worked fine on my Alpha.
