From the installation dump:

formail.c:38: `daemon' redeclared as different kind of symbol
/usr/include/stdlib.h:136: previous declaration of `daemon'
formail.c:38: warning: `daemon' was declared `extern' and later `static'
*** Error code 1

I don't have the source code here, but I think there is an entry in
the FAQ regarding this problem. (It's in the source code package.) It
has nothing to do with not having privileges.


Upgrade your sources: this was fixed in procmail 3.11pre4.  From the
HISTORY file:

1995/10/29: v3.11pre4
            ...
            Changes to formail:
               - Eliminated the conflict with the 4.4BSD daemon libidentifier
