So, has *anybody* of the Penguin persuasion succeeded in compiling the new wallet?

If yes, then what Linux are you using?

And, have you in any way modified (or updated) boost, php, and/or openssl along the way?

Compiles fine on a stock Ubuntu 13.10 machine. It has all of the boost libraries installed (aka "libboost-all-dev" v1.42-v1.53) and openssl 1.0.1e


Aha.  Thanks muchly for the clue.  Finally got maxcoind and maxcoin-qt v0.9.2.1-g8c5e74e-beta to compile, using boost-1.55 (compiled from scratch, that is, bjam and b2) and openssl-1.0.1i (compiled as per LFS).  

The trick is to add -no-ssl2 in the config line when compiling openssl-1.0.1i.   And then you need to do make depend before you do make.  I gather that the standard Ubuntu build of openssl already does all that for you.

If you are compiling openssl-1.0.1e, which is vulnerable to the Heartbleed attack, then you would have to insert -DOPENSSL_NO_HEARTBEATS in the CFLAGS line of the generated Makefile, after you do the config but before you do the make.  Or in the DEPFLAGS line, I forget which --um, heck, just add it to both, to be safe.

Thanks again for the clue.

Man, this new logo sucks donkey dicks, doesn't it.
