I think I have the fix for part of it, but this remains...

    gcc -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
    -Wmissing-declarations -fPIC -I. -I../../../src/include
    -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS -DFRONTEND
    -DSYSCONFDIR='"/usr/local/pgsql/etc"'  -c -o thread.o thread.c
    thread.c: In function `pqGethostbyname':
    thread.c:189: error: `resbuf' undeclared (first use in this
function)

Looking at src/port/thread.c, line 189, it looks like somebody typo'd.
Looks like that second parameter should be "resultbuf", not "resbuf"?
