[Gd-hackers] compile error - GNU/Linux - "S_IFMT" undeclared

[Danny Milosavljevic]

Hi,

I just tried to update Gwydion Dylan from SVN on my Gentoo Linux box and 
got this:

----------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------

If I add 
  #define _XOPEN_SOURCE 500
to the beginning of "portability.c", it works. 

Though: I tried whether it compiles in a standalone C test program and 
there it works fine even without the "#define". Weird...

"gcc -E -dD" log is:
