***FIX INCLUDED***

This appears to actually be a result of the default accounting file path being /var/log/account instead of /var/account. I looked at the source, and it appears that the configure code for setting the default file location is simply not working. The config check looking for the file includes a C program that appears to work as I copied it out into a blah.c and compiled and ran it. However, the configure is not picking up the options for WTMP_FILE_LOC, ACCT_FILE_LOC, SAVACCT_FILE_LOC, and USRACCT_FILE_LOC.

***The Fix***
I have found that simply regenerating the configure script with autoconf fixes this issue with the build.
