Well, this is a completely new error, which you've never reported before
with 3.2 betas, and there haven't been any changes to the mktime support
in probably more than a year! Something is just not right here. Try
reinstalling the htdig-3.2.0b4-061001 snapshot completely from scratch,
to make sure your not fighting against corrupted remnants of previous
attempts. Run ./configure with the --disable-shared option, enable
profiling as you did before. Then, if you can compile, try running with
profiling again. Please use this procedure consistently with any new
snapshot you test out, so we don't end up wasting time chasing after
ghosts.

Well, the fact that you did get a pre-3.2.0b3 snapshot to compile suggests
to me that you should be able to get the latest snapshot built too.
This shared library support that Loic slapped in before running off has
been nothing but trouble, and I'd suggest that anyone experiencing the
slightest bit of oddity in the 3.2 betas avoid shared libraries like
the plague. Trying to debug this crud has been a real nightmare, and
personally, I'd like nothing better than to see it taken out entirely.
At the very least, we really ought to make --disable-shared the default,
for all systems, and give huge warnings and disclaimers to anyone who
enables it.
