fix problem on 64-bits host

Hi, with this patch , I could compile successfully  sysvinit-2.86
Comment 2 Thomas Petazzoni 2010-08-13 14:28:39 UTC 
Ok, we need to pass LCRYPT=-lcrypt when building sysvinit. I'll cook a patch to fix this. Thanks!
Comment 3 Thomas Petazzoni 2010-08-13 14:29:49 UTC 
By the way, Sergio, which distribution are you using ? Here, even my limited x86_64 Debian chroot has /usr/lib/libcrypt.a, so I didn't see the potential problem.
Comment 4 Sérgio 2010-08-13 15:00:54 UTC 
Fedora13.x86_64

yum provides */libcrypt.a

I have installed /usr/lib64/libcrypt.a, 

Should I install also glibc-static-2.12-3.i686  ?
