No problems. There are some ansi-isms, whose weren't taken into account at configure phase.
I used this patch to compile. The right answer is - of course - using strerror in xstrerror.
But that's a bit longer patch too. Use this until 1.1.beta3, but dont forget to remove it,
before applying diff-1.1.beta2-1.1.beta3. I'm sure that will solve, but dont forget to
check Changelog.

P.S.: "patch ... ; rm config.cache; ./configure ; make" is the right sequence.
