Hmm.  The prototype for getline lives in <stdio.h>, so the real bug is
that our replacement <stdio.h> is not guaranteeing that ssize_t is
defined.  Which platform was this failure on?  Perhaps it resulted from
Bruno's attempts to reduce namespace pollution on glibc machines, coupled
with an older glibc that didn't yet expose everything required by POSIX 2008?
