Taking a quick look, u_int and u_char are not defined POSIX types, but are
BSD types defined in sys/types.h. /usr/include/arpa/nameser.h does include
sys/types.h, so should be fine. This typically means that something, some
dependency, is interfering and causing these types to not be found and
poudriere, since it does a clean build, does not hit this issue.

I did quickly look at the source files to see where sys/types.h or some
other code that would define u_char and u_int might be found, but came up
empty. I'd be curious there they are defined in a poudriere build. I see
only . and /usr/local/include listed in the compile line. Tracking these
things down can be painful. I'm afraid and I will not claim to be great at
it.
