Amen.  It's not a clean build on ULTRIX 3.0, either.  I first got an
undefined for NO_DATA (apparently it lives in netdb.h).  I hacked in a
#define for it just see how far I could get and I got another undefined,
although I can't remember it right now.  I also got a mismatch warning about
a return code from signal (which is now a void on ULTRIX) and other warnings
about things being redfined (s_host, I think).  Does anyone have a version
that will build cleanly on ULTRIX?  The version of sendmail that comes with
it is, as far as I can see, broken a number of ways.
