Thanks for the help unfortunatly it didn't work.  It did however lead me
to the likely cause.  I believe the compile is now broken for BSD based
machines.  It looks like in configure BSD should not use the provided bind
(libresolv directory: nameser.h, netdb.h, etc).  It is however in those
that all the above undefined *_r stuff (HFIXEDSZ,NETDB_INTERNAL,etc) is
defined.  I am going to try defining them by hand.  Perhaps there should
be some ifndef's in the code. Is this the correct diagnosis? If so what
are we BSD folks supposed to do?  Besides upgrade to Solaris 2.5.
