hmmm... that part of utils.c is the NetBSD workaround, and it probably have
errors. You don't need that on Linux. The funny thing is that it compiles
fine for me. Please check your config.log file, whether getutent() is found
by the configure script.

As a temporary fix change line 60 of utils.c from

#ifndef HAVE_GETUTENT

to 

#if 0
