Great! It worked! I can't tell you how happy I am. You were right: the
/sys/stat.h file didn't include the /sys/types.h. To resolve this I only
had to chande htdig/PDF.cc and add include /sys/types.h just before
/sys/stat.h
It compiled, it installed... I am saying thank you to everybody who
helped me out.
