We have a small problem <:-)!

We have a xylogic micro annex XL and we need to rebuild the erpcd software
following a nasty filesystem disaster. When attempting to build the
software there is a problem with the 
struct msghdr  in   <sys/socket.h>.

Linux seems to want to define the struct with 
struct msghdr;
and claims that it shouldn't be a problem. The remote annex software fails
in it's make complainiong that the size of a struct msghdr is unknown.

Has anyone successfully built this software for RedHat 2.0? Or any other
distribution for that matter? Perhaps there is a hack for the header file
I don't know. We're using gcc 2.7.0 and kernel 1.2.13 (yeah, I know, it's
Dark Age stuff....).

Any help would be appreciated. Reply by posting and Email please.
John Foster.
