I just tried compiling nmh on a MacOS X box. Like Oliver, I couldn't reproduce the initgroups header problem. I didn't get any strncasecmp warnings either. So I'm closing this bug as it seems to have been fixed. Reopen if you disagree.

Have committed a fix for the `make install' problem. The srncasecmp issue is only compiler warnings that can't be avoided unless we rename nmh's strncasecmp. It is intentionally not using the builtin strncasecmp: read the comments in the source. The first issue I can't reproduce.

The configure script is not properly finding the declaration for
initgroups in /usr/include/unistd.h on line 175. So, it is leaving
#undef INITGROUPS_HEADER instead of
#define INITGROUPS_HEADER <unistd.h>

In addition, it does not seem to find strncasecmp in the
/usr/lib/libSystem.dylib file which leads to ld warnings
about multiple definitiolns of symbol _strncasemp

Finally, since the MacOS X filesystem is not case sensitive, the
'make install' command believes that 'install' is up to date because
the INSTALL file exists.
