The line that hurts in Server.cc is:
    int c = getopt_long( argc, argv, "p:d:rgh", long_options, NULL );
Try to tranlate this into 

#ifdef HAVE_GETOPT_LONG
int c = getopt_long( argc, argv, "p:d:rgh", long_options, NULL );
#else
int c = getopt( argc, argv, "p:d:rgh");
#endif

or something like that. This hack is untested, but this might be worth a try. 
Please report success and failure to the list. 

In fact, the real trouble is expected when trying to link libraries 
dynamically. But also here the list will be thankful for your experiences.
