Hi,
We have a NCR unix MP-RAS unix machine (svr4 variant) that fails to compile
openssl-0.96. It seems it misses some header files for some obscure reason.
I noticed that bash-2.04 also had this same sort of problem when compiling.
Here is a snippet from the email exchange with the bash maintainer.

Yup, it works.
You're incredible...
Thank you, default shell will change shortly ;-)

However a quick grep shows

/usr/include/netdb.h: * Error return codes from gethostbyname() and
gethostbyaddr() (left in
[seth@coltex-1 openssl-0.9.6]$
Any suggestions?
Do i need a extra define somewhere for finding the function(s) in the
include files. All above listed functions ARE available.
Weird.
If at first you don't INSTALL, README again.
Kind regards,
