Summary: socketmodule won't compile on BSDI 4.0

Initial Comment:
Trying to build 2.2b2 on  BSDI BSD/OS 4.0 with gcc
2.7.2.1 and gcc 2.95.2, and the socket module won't
build.  No problems building socket for Python 2.1.1
on this same machine.

% ./configure  --with-threads=no

# for socket(2), without SSL support.
_socket socketmodule.c

Attached are three files:

- pyconfig.h from a fresh gcc 2.7.2.1 build
- config.log from a fresh gcc 2.7.2.1 build
- /usr/include/netdb.h
- the getaddrinfo manual page from my system

Indeed, EAI_ADDRFAMILY is defined in /usr/include/netdb.h,
but EAI_MAX is not.  Let me know if I can provide any more 
information.  Thanks.

Ok, then we need to investigate the configure results. Can
you please attach pyconfig.h and config.log to this report?
Also, can you please confirm that you build Python from
scratch with 2.7.2.1 (i.e untarring a fresh source tree, to
avoid using a config.cache left over from gcc 2.95.2)?

Furthermore, can you please report details of the
getaddrinfo implementation on your system? Does it provide
one? In the C library? If not, can you confirm that
EAI_ADDRFAMILY is defined in your system headers, but
EAI_MAX is not? If yes, can you speculate as to why
configure thinks your system does not have getaddrinfo?

I probably should have included the output from gcc 2.7.2.1
instead which I know is properly installed.  The results are
similar, although there is no mention of `wint_t':

Are you sure the compiler is properly installed? That you
have wint_t definition both in wchar.h and stddef.h (as
fixincluded by gcc) is not Python's doing; either the header
files of your operating system are corrupt, or the compiler
is broken.

If you cannot figure out the details, please attach both
header files to this report.
