First of all, many thanks.

I don't know whether this answers your question, but I have tried to
cancel all the lines

#include <arpa/inet.h> 

in the file    configure    (there were three of them) and nothing has
changed: I got the same configuration error. Then I've done the same with
aclocal.m4 (and then re-run ./configure) but still nothing new has
happened.

Should I try to cancel similar lines in some other file?
 
Thanks again.
