 In the configure log originally posted (from tnftp), you have:
 
 checking for strlcat... yes
 checking for strlcpy... yes
 
 That's rather strange. On my debian unstable system I have:
 
 checking for strlcat... no
 checking for strlcpy... no
 
 Can you please try to find out why the configure script does
 the wrong thing? Does this command produce empty output?
 
 echo "#include <string.h>" | gcc -E - | grep strlcat
