No mine compiled without problems.  I am on Solaris 8 using gcc 2.95.3

My experience was that Nagios compiled and installed very smoothly.
My difficulty was in learning how the configuration templates worked
and interacted.  Once I understood the syntax for those it worked very
well.  I am still working on the notification escalation though.

Here is what I used to make my icons work:

define hostextinfo{
        name                    bladetemplate
        icon_image              blade.png
        icon_image_alt          Blade 100
        statusmap_image         blade.png
        register                        0
        }

define hostextinfo{
        use                     bladetemplate
        host_name               okcu02
        notes_url               http://okcu06.okc.moc.com/site-html/okcu02.htm
        2d_coords               100,480
        }

I put the png files in /usr/local/nagios/share/images/logos/blade.png
