This error message is more or less an FAQ for OpenSSH (even though the
particular reason may be different depending on platform and setup):
Check out config.log: there you will find the error message triggered during
the test compilations. It will tell you (and us) what in detail to look
for.

I suppose that you are talking about the latest version of OpenSSH, which
is 2.5.2p2. It already has the necessary patches applied.

It would probably be best if you examine the config.log file and if you
do not find the reason in it yourself, you should send another request
to the openssh-unix-dev mailing list, where issues of the portable
OpenSSH implementation are discussed.
