----------
I've been trying to build the latest rsyslog on RHEL 6.7. Configure works,
but I'm getting some errors from make.

./configure --enable-gnutls --enable-mail --enable-imfile --enable-imptcp
--disable-liblogging-stdlog --prefix=/usr

...

make[2]: Entering directory `/root/rsyslog/tools'

It doesn't look like the batch.h file has been changed in quite some time.
Am I simply missing a dependency that's not caught by configure?
