[OpenIndiana-discuss] Compiling Mosh for OI 151

[Robbie Crash]

I've banged my head against this for the last two weeks off and on, and
while I am able to get the server running, it won't accept connections, and
the client immediately exits with the message "hangup":

$ mosh robbiecrash.me
Hangup

I've recompiled it with and without the edits that Jonathan made, and if it
compiles it doesn't accept connections/make connections, but generally
speaking without those edits it fails to compile.

I've shared the diff as well as the edited source provided by Jonathan here
since they didn't come through on list in case anyone wants to take another
stab at it: https://drive.google.com/#folders/0B2uoCpDTndQWaDcwNWtMcHFQMFU

As well as listing all of the crap I tried to do to get it done here:
http://robbiecrash.me/?p=218 (NSFW language on site).

I've now given up, installed an Ubuntu VM and am moshing to that and have
that mosh session ssh'd to my OI box. Ugly, but it works.
