Compiling guile

[Liam Whalen]

When I compiled guile I got an error
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.. -I./.. -I../libltdl -g -O2 -Wall
-Wmissing-prototypes -c net_db.c  -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/net_db.lo
net_db.c:85: conflicting types for `inet_aton'
/usr/include/arpa/inet.h:69: previous declaration of `inet_aton'
make[1]: *** [net_db.lo] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/guile-1.4/libguile'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1


so I went to net_bd.c line 69 which read
extern int inet_aton ()

and commented it out.  Everything compiled fine after that.
Was commenting that out ok to do?
