problems compiling checkpassword

I downloaded checkpassword 0.9 and I am trying to setup it up on my Fedora Core 4 box. When I run make, I get the following error:

./load checkpassword prot.o unix.a byte.a `cat \
shadow.lib` `cat crypt.lib` `cat s.lib`
/usr/bin/ld: errno: TLS definition in /lib64/libc.so.6 section .tbss mismatches non-TLS reference in checkpassword.o
/lib64/libc.so.6: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [checkpassword] Error 1
