-------------------------------------------- RH linux release 6.2 Kernel 2.2.19-6.2.12smp (Sparc64) glibc-2.1.3-23 -------------------------------------------- I'm having exactly the same problem with RH-6.2 for SPARC and I've seen some other references to this issue with RH-6.2 for Alpha.
This is probaly not a bug. I resolved my issues by simply correcting the /usr/include/asm path by creating a symlink to /usr/include/asm-sparc.
On my system (RHL6.2), socklen_t is defined in /usr/include/bits/socket.h . My workarond: echo 'ac_cv_type_socklen_t=${ac_cv_type_socklen_t=yes}' >config.cache ./configure -C --with....
