I believe I have a fix for these. The checks for the various structure
members need the driver "cflags" passed as args to the check, as the
std=c11 means that some things like off_t type are no longer defined (off_t
is posix)

This I still need to investigate.
In the meantime, I'll do a new version to see if the Ubuntu 20.04 issues
with the mlx drivers goes away with my fix.
