Obviously that is an SSH issue, not a gcc issue. The SSH sources you have don't support the environment you are trying to use to build it.

You didn't mention the Red Hat Linux version number, or the gcc version number, but I see gcc-2.7.2.3 in one of the stringe, and I know libc5 is old, I didn't know anyone was still trying to use it. You can't expect current SSH sources to compile using obsolete linux/gcc/libc versions. It might work if you used a native libc5 compiler instead of a cross compiler, but still, it seems pretty unlikely to me.

I doubt that what you are doing can work.
