Odd. I've built 0.24 on both RH 8.0 and RH 9. I haven't tried it on 7.3 yet. 
Are you sure that libsocket has anything to do with it? The string "libsocket" 
doesn't seem to appear anywhere in my configure or config.log. There's a check 
in configure.in, but the only match for libsocket on my filesystem is 
/usr/local/lib/libsocket++.so and family.

On my system, it's 108.
