Re: guile 1.8.3 compilation errors on AIX 6.1

[Rainer Tammer]

Hello Neil,
sorry to bother you again (and again)...

There is also a problem in filesys.c

The function

#define FUNC_NAME s_scm_readdir
{
  struct dirent_or_dirent64 *rdent;
[...]

declares "DIR *ds..." and later calls

 SCM_SYSCALL (readdir_r_or_readdir64_r (ds, (struct dirent_or_dirent64 
*) buf, &rdent));

The problem is that (at least AIX) expects DIR64 for ds...

=> readdir64_r uses DIR64
=> readdir_r uses DIR


There is also a problem in net_db.c

hstrerror needs _USE_IRS defined on AIX otherwise you get a compilation 
error...


With this changes I can compile guile 1.8.3 on AIX 6.1.
