Summary: I had trouble compiling DSPAM v3.6.8 on an old Red Hat 6
box. I made some changes to variable argument list pre-processor
directives (used older style) and added an include.

With this it compiled and has been running great for the last few
days. My Inbox is now much, much, much more manageable.
Thank you DSPAM team :)
