If you are worried about the compile not going well, you can get the actual
release version by doing an apt-get:

apt-get install binkd

As the Pi runs a debian derivative, and there is a debian package
available, that is the easier way.

I was able to install it that way initially on my pi, as well as another
debian system.  One is now running a newer version that I compiled from
source.  I forget which is which because they both work just fine.  You just
have to be sure to get the config file, and file permissions, right.  The
passwords in the config file, too, of course.

One thing to remember is that, if you install it via apt, the default
behavior is to run as a daemon.  So, if you try to start it from the
command line it could bomb because it is already running.
