It's not a matter of pickiness; I think it must be a matter of
reorganization of the system header files. If "caddr_t" is
undefined any compiler is going to barf. Apparently the
definition of caddr_t must have been moved: previously it was
getting picked up, now it's not. Today's change was to explicitly
#include <sys/types.h>
in the hope of picking up the typedef.
Ok, going the cvs route now -- initially I ran into another problem
trying to compile from cvs, but fortunately I still had some notes that
said for cvs compile it was necessary to add the --enable-build-doc
switch to configure. Then I got an error that "convert" couldn't be
found. AFAIK that's part of imagemagick so I am now in the process of
installing (i.e., compiling) that and all its dependencies -- this
non-binary fink thing reminds me of gentoo a lot!
So maybe the configure script should check for "convert" when also
building the docs?
Let's see what tomorrow brings!
