So, my questions are: a) Why the configure use a different type name?
Comments suggest that this is what OSF/1 used.
b) If it is intentional, then where that type is defined?
Presumably in system include files.
c) Is this branch of the configure still maintained, or it is abandoned?
OSF/1 is long dead.
The related code that use this API is also still maintained?
Not as far as I know. However, it shouldn't be used on OpenBSD or FreeBSD, I expect. Someone (probably you :-) needs to figure out why it's being used. Sorry, I don't know what is normally used on OpenBSD and/or FreeBSD these days.
