Dunno about other platforms, but on Darwin this appears to be (at least
partly) a gcc4 problem (I also have 4.0.1).  Switching to gcc3.3 gets past the
error you saw, but eventually ends up with the error shown at the end of this
message.

Looking in work/putty-0.58/macosx/osx.h (which is for an Aqua-based build), I
see that OMIT_UTMP is defined.  So the following patch to Makefile, along with
using gcc3.3, builds successfully (and runs at least as far as presenting
putty's opening screen, which is as far as I tried....).
