This is puzzling since RedHat 7.3 is a platform we have built LDM-6 on
for several months.

Unfortunately, the install.log file that you attached only starts at
the error run into during the make run.  Can you redo the configure
and make steps and send us the output from both the configure and make
steps?  This will help us understand what is going on on your machine.

Here is the configure output and the first part of the make output we
see on our RedHat 7.3 machine:

You will see from our make listing that libldm.a gets created just after
ulog.c gets compiled.

It might also be helpful to know what release of gcc you are using.
As a comparison, here is the gcc information from our RedHat 7.3
machine:

% gcc --version
2.96

I found that it is incredibly helpful if I build the software (make) before
trying to run the installation procedure (make install).  Everything seems to
be running now.  Sorry about that.
