It looks like there are some regressions in 1.4.10 on some of my
platforms.
On my UnixWare 7.1.1 box I needed to patch lib/fpurge.c and lib/freading.c
just to get it to compile. I got errors like
....
UX:acomp: ERROR: "/opt/src/gnu/m4-1.4.10/lib/fpurge.c", line 95: undefined
struct/union member: _ptr
....
Looking at stdio.h I see
....
typedef struct _FILE_
{
int __cnt; /* num. avail. characters in buffer */
unsigned char *__ptr; /* next character from/to here */
unsigned char *__base; /* the buffer (not really) */
unsigned char __flag; /* the state of the stream */
unsigned char __file; /* file descriptor (not necessarily) */
unsigned char __buf[2]; /* micro buffer as a fall-back */
} FILE;
....
so I patched like this

Additionally my OpenServer 5.0.4 box has no fseeko so it needed
lib/fseeko.c patched.

The comments in that section of code mention AIX, HP-UX, IRIX, OSF/1,
Solaris, & mingw. Of those I only have Solaris here and with the above
patches Solaris 8 & 10 still build fine and pass tests.

After reading up on the OpenGroup's onlinepubs for fseeko(), I came

If you have any ideas how to fix the test-vasprintf-posix failure on
the UnixWare 7.1.1 box, I'd love to hear them.
Thanks.
