Something is possibly messed up on your system.
  * "errno" is declared in errno.h, which is generally in /usr/include on
    most Linux systems
  * If errno.h couldn't be found, it should have given you an error at
    configure time, and not gotten up to the Makefile

I'd say do an "rpm -V glibc-devel" to make sure that your include
directory (and errno.h file) is in good shape, and check balsa/config.log
to see if you can see any references to errno.
