(From Noah Misch)

configure:5714: checking sys/mode.h usability
configure:5726: cc -c -O  conftest.c >&5
cc-1204 cc: WARNING File = /usr/include/sys/vnode.h, Line = 332
  The indicated declaration is not visible outside of the function.

  typedef       int     (*vop_read_t)(bhv_desc_t *, struct uio *, int, 
struct cred *,

Apparently sys/mode.h depends on another header that defines `struct uio'.  You
can fix the Samba configure.in or configure.ac to account for that; see the node
``Present But Cannot Be Compiled'' in the Autoconf manual.  If you just want to
use Samba, the fix is not necessary.
Comment 3 Jason Mader (mail bounces back) 2004-11-22 14:36:40 UTC 
On issue (1), the code generated to test rpcsvc/yp_prot.h does not include rpc/rpc.h which includes the 
necessary prerequesite headers.

It does

| #define HAVE_RPC_RPC_H 1

but doesn't write a #include <rpc/rpc.h>

If it did, the test would succeed on Irix.

Line 658 of configure.in can be changed to:

AC_CHECK_HEADERS(rpc/rpc.h rpcsvc/nis.h rpcsvc/yp_prot.h rpcsvc/ypclnt.h,,,
[[#if HAVE_RPC_RPC_H
# include <rpc/rpc.h>
#endif
]])

(From James Peach)

Just found it .. in includes.h, apparantly AIX needs mode.h for
S_ISLINK. On IRIX, S_ISLINK comes from sys/stat.h, so sys/mode.h is
never included in the Samba build.

fixed using autoconf magic.  Will watch build farm.

sorry for the same, cleaning up the database to prevent unecessary reopens of bugs.
