A build of wget-1.9.1 on SGI IRIX 6.5 failed because src/connect.c
uses a local variable named sa_len that SGI defines in
/usr/include/sys/socket.h:208 like this:
#define sa_len sa_union.sa_generic.sa_len2
The result is an illegal declaration about line 329 in src/connect.c:
socklen_t sa_union.sa_generic.sa_len2 = sockaddr_len ();
I made a temporary workaround with
#undef sa_len
just before that declaration, but future releases of wget should
probably just pick a different variable name, even though the fault
seems to lies with SGI for having defined a user-space name in a
system header file.
