Thanks Shane, that seemed to work although I've only compiled it so 
far, not run it:

$ uname -prs
NetBSD 3.1 i386
$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Configured with: 
/home/nick/work/netbsd/src/tools/gcc/../../gnu/dist/gcc/configure 
--enable-long-long --disable-multilib --enable-threads 
--disable-symvers --build=i386-unknown-netbsdelf2.0. 
--host=i386--netbsdelf --target=i386--netbsdelf
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.3.3 (NetBSD nb3 20040520)
$

It seems GNU make is required now:

$ ./configure CFLAGS="-static" > configure.log 2>&1
$ make
Making all in includes
cd .. && make  am--refresh
make  all-am
cd .. && make  am--refresh
make: don't know how to make omapip/*.h. Stop

GNU make produced some warnings like this both with and without using 
FLAGS="-static" with ./configure:

but otherwise I couldn't see any errors in its output.

I'll have to come to grips with IPv6 and set up a test network to try 
out the binaries.
