On a Sparc running Solaris 2.4, gcc-2.6.3 seems to have problems with
the ntohl() routines in <sys/byteorder.h>.  I'm compiling with the
barest possible command line:

	cc -o <file> <file>.c

Gcc doesn't like the byteorder.h under /usr/include/sys, so it has one
of its own.  Rather than simple NULL macro defines, it uses some
extern __inline__ declarations to simply return the passed argument.

This looks fine, and cc -E confirms that the include file gets the
right inline routines.  However, when the linking stage starts up it
fails to find ntohl in the symbol table.

The linker I'm using is /usr/ccs/bin/ld.

Is this a problem with gcc, gcc's byteorder.h, or Solaris' version of
ld?  As a work around, I've been able to compile this by simply adding
-I/usr/include, so that it gets the system header file (which doesn't
use inline routines).

Please email me, or reply here.  (Email preferred.)
