i finally had time to look at why scons was not finding sys/mman.h. When sc=
ons=20
checks for sys/mman.h it only compiles this:

  #include<sys/mman.h>

However there are macros in mman.h that require types.h, at least that's th=
e=20
case on panther; so the compile fails and HAVE_SYS_MMAN_H is not defined.=20
This is the same problem with net/if.h. So i added sys/types.h to the array=
=20
passed to conf.CheckHeader( ... )

    113         content +=3D define_line(header_define,
    114                         conf.CheckHeader(["sys/types.h",header]))
=2E...
    119
    120     content +=3D define_line("HAVE_NET_IF_H",=20
conf.CheckHeader(['sys/types.h','sys/socket.h','net/if.h']))

This seems to do the trick on panther. It may seem a little overkill to hav=
e=20
sys/types.h included for every header file check, but i don't think there a=

any bad sideeffects.=20
