Ok, redhat imap is strange. I have a report from=20
	"Mpu Gondrong" <wa...@se...>
of a way to get it to work:

| env LIBS=3D"-lpam -lgssapi_krb5 -lssl" LDFLAGS=3D-L/usr/kerberos/lib
|=20
| Note,  first  make symlink 'c-client -> imap' in /usr/include.=20

I do not know why redhat choose to use different link options and naming
conventions than other distributions.

I do hope to replace libc-client some day... but for now I am stuck with it.
