It is not enough that you provide a patch. They will surely reject the
patch, as apparently they don't want to include unistd.h unconditionally.

The current code uses the __GLIBC__ macro here and there (well, sometimes
in combination with __GNU__, which is redundant). It will help if you
could explain why it does not work without the patch, and why it works
on Linux-based systems.

Also, it would help if you could tell whether this is a single .zip file
that it does not work, or no .zip file works at all now, because last time
I checked on GNU/kFreeBSD, it worked.
