Just to re-cap...
When running a Linux Distribution w/ strong package management support (which
is almost any and all current distros) you should avoid building software from
source.
In this instance, if there were significant features missing in the 1.1.13
version then you might have a case for building from source. Otherwise, I'd
use the prepackaged version.
Also, if your wiling to build a program from sourcean thenb you might want to
consider becoming a package maintainer... You're already 80 percent there...

What's your distro? Can apt/yum/etc. help with these issues? I'm
checking in Unbuntu's repositories and freeradius is there at 1.1.3.
As for your ln command.... that's just creating a hard link to that file
to your current directory. Were you in the directory where you were
attempting to compile?
Can you please post the actual error you're getting, or even better, tee
the output of your make to a file to attach?
