 I've examined this problem a little further, and it appears that the 
 configure script for tnftp does not output a config.h file with 
 HAVE_DIRNAME set. Strangely enough, the log it produces does seem to 
 indicate that it has correctly idenfitied that the dirname(3) function 
 does exist (which, indeed, it does on OS X). It seems to have the same 
 error for fparseln(3).
 
 I can't quite figure out why, someone with more intimate knowledge of 
 autoconf can probably figure it out much more quickly then I can.
