Here is the real problem.  If you look in main.c there is a line that
calls setenv, which doesn't seem to be in as many libraries I had
thought.  You can replace it with:
sprintf(buf, "HOME=%s", F_HOME);
putenv(buf);
And make sure to define buf in the declarations.  If you would like I
could fix this in the distribution (since putenv is much more common),
and you could ftp it again...I just discovered this problem yesterday, so
I haven't had the time to do anything about it.
