May be another silly error :-) . This is what I get while trying to
compile

I did a 'man getservbyname' and found out I needed to use -lsocket
-lnsl. I added next to -lpcre in the Makefile and my error message
shrinked to this

gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wno-unused -D_REENTRANT -DHAVE_RPCENT -DMAXMSG=32768
-DBBDPORTNUMBER=1984 -I. -I/usr/share/src/hobbit-4.0-RC3/include -o

Now I did a 'man inet' which also recommeds the socket and nsl library
but no go yet.

Let me know if I can go any further. 

Thanks
