Search the list archives, there were many who had problems compiling Failsafe 
and dependant packages.  Though, I would first recommend trying to setup a 
stock redhat 7.x/8.0 or suse box for testing and getting a grip on what to 
compile. For example, I compiled Failsafe on gentoo but had many problems 
during run-time.
