In the files src/appl/user_user/client.c and src/appl/gssftp/ftpd/ftpd.c the external
variable h_errno is declared `extern int h_errno'. Yet h_errno is not neccessarily
an integer. (And certainly not on AIX 4.3.2.) In any case, it is already defined
in <netdb.h>


Build krb5-1.0.6 on an AIX 4.3.x machine.

As /usr/include/netdb.h is included in both client.c and ftpd.c, there is no need
to declare h_errno a second time. I have checked Solaris 5.6, Redhat 6.1, and
FreeBSD 3.0 and they all define h_errno in /usr/include/netdb.h.

State-Changed-When: Thu Jul 1 19:26:08 1999
State-Changed-Why:

Problems on other platforms have led to all h_errno references being
removed for all but the 1.0.x branch. The release tentatively
scheduled for around the end of the summer shouldn't have this
problem.
