[Help-tar] Problems building tar-1.13.25

[Jerry Stretch]

I'm attempting to install tar-1.13.25 as suggested to support my Amanda backup
software.  The machine is running FreeBSD 4.10.

I ran configure with no problem, but when I tried to build, I got the following
errors:

What have I missed here?

Thanks for any assistance.
