That's the first thing a gnulib net/if.h replacement header should provide then, since I believe the net/if.h header needs to be self-contained according to POSIX. It would be interesting to see if the self tests works even if you make the above modification, though. Also try running it with a command line parameter and check that it prints all the host interfaces on your machine. Thanks, /Simon
