    In article <20030830161813.GA28890@twisted.net> you write:

    >/usr/include/sys/cdefs.h:273: warning: `_POSIX_C_SOURCE' is not defined
    >/usr/include/sys/cdefs.h:279: warning: `_POSIX_C_SOURCE' is not defined

    The warnings are wrong,[1] so you should probably ask the GCC people
    about that.

    [1] That is to say, any identifier used in a preprocessor expression
    (after macro expansion) is defined to have a value of zero, and GCC
    should not be complaining about this.
