Hi Mark,
As a fellow Linux fan, I've run into weird problems from everything to
libraries missing to other stuff. The message that gives you the most
important info is:
/usr/i386-slackware-linux/bin/ld: cannot open -lbsd: No such file or
directory
It's looking for the file: /usr/i386-slackware-linux/bin/ld. Where do you
have ld installed? Mine's installed at /usr/bin/ld.
You may want to do a "make distclean" (before running configure, make, make
install) and try reinstalling SSH2.
