Hi
Consider the following
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE 600
#include <sys/file.h>
int main(void)
{
return 0;
}
Gives the following when compiled
> gcc x.c
In file included from x.c:2:
/usr/include/sys/file.h:162: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list
before 'u_int'
The error was caused by this patch
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/sys/types.h.diff?r1=1.73;r2=1.74;f=h
No CVS comment as to why the change was needed
I propose that the first part of the patch is reverted, as follows
Thanks
Roy
