Have you ever succeeded in compiling BIND on there? I have a 
substantially older machine, Slackware 10.0 (kernel 2.4.26) (yes, 
that's right, two point FOUR), which has been running 9.9.4 since 
shortly after the announcement.

(Yes, I know. I should upgrade or retire it. I will eventually.)

I doubt this will help, because I only had problems with the ancient 
openssl, not with caps. But here's my ./configure ...

./configure \
  --prefix=/usr \
  --libdir=/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX} \
  --sysconfdir=/etc \
  --localstatedir=/var \
  --with-libtool \
  --mandir=/usr/man \
  --enable-shared \
  --disable-static \
  --enable-threads \
  --enable-rrl \
  --with-openssl=/usr \
  --without-gost \
  --without-dlopen \
  --build=$ARCH-slackware-linux || exit 1
#  --with-idn=/usr \

This was adapted from the Slackware bind.SlackBuild script, with 
additions of --enable-rrl and the two --without-*, and as you can 
see, the removal of --with-idn.

I had to experiment a few times to see where ./configure failed, 
adjusted it, and tried again.
