Compiling time-1.4 on linux, using GCC 2.3.3.

time.c:93: conflicting types for `wait3'
/usr/include/sys/wait.h:39: previous declaration of `wait3'
time.c:100: conflicting types for `getpagesize'
/usr/include/unistd.h:331: previous declaration of `getpagesize'
time.c: In function `run_command':
time.c:618: storage size of `status' isn't known
time.c:636: warning: passing arg 2 of `execvp' from incompatible pointer type
make: *** [time.o] Error 1

This is fixed by the following diff:

diff -r -c3 time-1.4/time.c time-1.41/time.c

The first problem is that Linux has sys/resource.h, but declares wait3()
as follows in <sys/wait.h> :

extern pid_t    wait3 _ARGS ((int *__wait_stat, int __options,
                        struct rusage *__rup));

Instead of testing for the presence of <sys/resource.h>, you should perhaps
test if including <sys/wait.h> defines the "union wait" type.


The second problem is that Linux declares getpagesize() as follows in
<unistd.h> :

extern size_t   getpagesize  _ARGS((void));

and size_t is an unsigned type.

Usually, I use the following autoconf macro to check for the getpagesize()
return type:

define(AC_GETPAGESIZE,
[AC_COMPILE_CHECK([getpagesize], , [getpagesize();],
AC_DEFINE(HAVE_GETPAGESIZE) [have_getpagesize=1])dnl
if test -n "$have_getpagesize"; then
echo checking for getpagesize declaration
AC_TEST_PROGRAM([
#if STDC_HEADERS
#include <stdlib.h>
#endif
#if HAVE_UNISTD_H
#include <unistd.h>
#endif
extern int getpagesize();
main() { exit(0); }],
AC_DEFINE(RETGETPAGESIZETYPE,[int]),
AC_DEFINE(RETGETPAGESIZETYPE,[size_t]))
fi
])dnl
dnl
