ok - i just continued with 2.0.5, but apparently it still has an UCB'ism
(scandir) that does not work under SYSV:

$ make
gcc -g -o elogd elogd.c -lsocket -lnsl
Undefined                       first referenced
 symbol                             in file
scandir                             /tmp/ccy0Z3iV.o
ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to elogd
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [elogd] Error 1
$ egrep scandir elogd.c
  n = scandir(path, &namelist, NULL, NULL);
