Package: gnome-libs

Severity: normal

When building 'gnome-libs' on ppc64/unstable,
I get the following error:

                 from /usr/include/asm/elf.h:8,
                 from /usr/include/asm-ppc64/sigcontext.h:12,

                 from /usr/include/sys/wait.h:30,
                 from gnome-exec.c:48:

This occurs because 'umode_t' is defined explicitly by the configure 
script.

The 'umode_t' check in the configure script fails for some reason.

With the attached patch 'gnome-libs' can be compiled on ppc64.

The patch remove the configure check for 'umode_t' entirely.
This should not do any harm because 'umode_t' is not used
in the sources.
