tramp 2.1.3 compile funkiness

[zl]

Hey, group,

Just yesterday compiled tramp.  Got a bunch of errors during the
compile-- see session copy below.  And I've tried all kinds of syntax
and can't get a tramp connection (though I can ssh just fine).

TIA for making my life worth living again... or just getting this
working for me.
