Thanks, it helps. There's still an HTML component to your email, but I can 
read the text better.

You need to investigate what the issue is then. If the struct is clearly 
defined in time.h, then #include <time.h> should fix it.

Same problem, something forward declared and that wasn't found. Given the name 
of this variable and the next error, I guess that this is "struct addrinfo".

This is from netdb.h. We're probably requiring the getaddrinfo(3) function, 
which is only some 10 years old and required for proper hostname resolution. 
Minix probably only offers gethostbyname(3), so you'll need to port the code to 
the older interface.

So all of the errors following that until what's below are related to Minix 
not providing getaddrinfo. If you port the code, you'll solve these issues.

getsockopt's argument is a known issue. This should be a configure-time check 
though.

Probably struct timespec again.

nanosleep is a POSIX function, from <time.h>. Is the header included?

As for vsnprintf, it's C99. If your C library doesn't have it, you'll need to 
port to older functions like vsprintf.

All of these are from <signal.h> and are from POSIX.1-2001.
