I've noticed a few quirks thus far using the 20080314 snapshot.

First, doing 'make realclean' removes the configure script.

Next, it builds on RHEL 4 using gcc, but it fails when using c99.

make[1]: Entering directory
`/u/wk/imorgan/src/openssh/openssh/openbsd-compat'
c99 -g -O2 -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wuninitialized -Wsign-compare  -I.

addrinfo'
make[1]: *** [bsd-arc4random.o] Error 1

On SLES 10 using icc 9.1, it builds. Strangely, it attempts to use the
gcc stack protection option with the Intel compiler.

Both builds fail the regression tests:

sftp commands: glob put to directory
sftp commands: put to local dir
