There is an extra carriage return included in the portsentry.c file in the 
directory where you are trying to compile.  Open up portsentry.c with Kedit, 
maximize the window (Important to remove line wrapping mistakes).  Then, 
Click Go, Line Number, 1585.

Current Line reads:
  printf ("Copyright 1997-2003 Craig H. Rowland <craigrowland at users dot 

Hit the end key and then press delete.

New Line reads:

  printf ("Copyright 1997-2003 Craig H. Rowland <craigrowland at users dot 
sourceforget dot net>\n");

Click Save, then make again and it should compile without errors.  Now, use 
checkinstall to build your RPM and install and you are good to go.

If that doesn't work, let me know what error you get and I will try to help.
