Yep.  That fixed the compile errors.
However, now one of the test programs fails to link:
(sorry, don't have time to dig for a few hours)

  gcc -std=gnu99  -O  -Wl,-z,ignore -o test-sys_socket test-sys_socket.o 
libtests.a ../lib/libcoreutils.a libtests.a  -lnsl -lsocket  -lm
  Undefined                       first referenced
   symbol                             in file
  __builtin_isnan                     test-strtod.o
  ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to test-strtod
  collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
  make[5]: *** [test-strtod] Error 1
