MacOS X:

(1)  Pointed out by David: static linking is not supported on MacOS X,

Solaris:
-------

(1)  This was pointed out by rog [at] iis dot fhg dot de (Ingo Rogalsky):
     "It isn't possible, to link samhain statically with Solaris. 
     This is a Solaris issue (see Sun Infodoc ID12624) and 
     not a samhain problem."

Linux, maybe others:
-------------------

(1)  With gdm (the GNOME display manager), GNOME version 1.2, using the 
     file hiding kernel module (configure option --enable-khide)
     at system boot may cause problems (keyboard locked up). 
     No problem observed with kdm (the KDE display manager).

     In case of problems, you may need to reboot into single-user mode and 
     edit the boot init script ... it should be noted that on the test
     system, gdm sometimes locked up the keyboard on other occasions 
     (e.g. after a fsck).

(2)  With gcc 2.95.2 (and glibc 2.1.3), it is not possible to use 
     --with-database and --enable-debug at the same time (the code will
     segfault). This is apparently a compiler bug, and it does not happen
     with gcc 3.0.
