Ok, i had the 2.3.0 dev sys, and the 2.3.2 for the rest. Then I
upgraded to 2.3.2 with xnx155, and the result had name clashes in the
.h-files. The worst one was size_t, that is defined in
stdio.h, stdlib.h, string.h and time.h
I don't know the logic for that, but there result is that you cannot
include any if those files together. Maybe cc ignores equal multiple
typedefs of the same type?

There were a few other symbols also, but since i very soon fixed the
include files, i have forgot which ones, and as i don't have the
original ones on-line, i cannot say what i have made, and sco have made.

As for the names chosen, i just picked any that i felt were quite
unique, inspired by header files from another system (where this is
consistenly done). I don't feel it like my job to make xenix
ANSI-conformant.

All in all, i am happy that i could get xnx155, without guarantees,
even if it meant i had to do some hand hacking of the include files.
If SCO now (maybe)have fixed that problem, it means that all future
buyers will not have it.

Another point:
In sys/types.h you can find definitions for uchar_t, ulong_t and ushort.
Why this inconsistency. Why not uchar and ulong, or ushort_t?
This means that i constantly have to comment out/define typedefs in
programs that i try to compile on xenix.
