Summary: _XOPEN_SOURCE issue on IRIX 5.3

Initial Comment:
On IRIX 5.3 /usr/include/sys/types.h contains:

#if ( !defined(_XOPEN_SOURCE) && !defined(_POSIX_SOURCE) 
) || defined(_BSD_TYPES) || defined(_BSD_COMPAT)
/*
 * Nested include for BSD/sockets source compatibility.
 * (The select macros used to be defined here).
 */
#include <sys/bsd_types.h>
#endif

sys/bsd_types.h however defines u_int.
If _XOPEN_SOURCE is defined (in pyconfig.h) this results 
in u_int not being known and the compilation to fail.  

One way to get around this is to change configure as 
follows (similarly as it is already being done for some 
other OSes, it seems...):

--- configure.orig      2004-08-08 00:18:33.000000000 +
0200
+++ configure   2004-08-08 00:18:59.000000000 +0200

     define_xopen_source=no;;
+  IRIX/5.*)
+    define_xopen_source=no;;
 esac
 
 if test $define_xopen_source = yes



I am not sure if this is the best way to solve that 
problem though.
