>Description:
	MYsql fails to compile on a linix machine. This script has
already gathered the details of the system so I won't repeat them here.

THIRD ERROR
~~~~~~~~~~~

MySql doesn't build with newer kernels. For example 2.2.3. This kernel
introduces a new type sa_family_t which is used in preference to
unsigned short in some of the network related header files. I will try to
build a version which works with this kernel and I suspect this is
related to the second error mentioned above.

>How-To-Repeat:
type:
	./configure
	make

on a linux machine.

>Fix:

The first error can be fixed by removing the -Werror from GNUMakefile in
mit-pthreads. I will work on the second and third errors. If I get something
going I can send you it but I suspect you will be faster than me as the
years have taken their toll.
