this is a known bug in the 1.8.0er release, to fix it you could either use
the 1.8.1er snapshot from the ftp-server
	<ftp://ftp.tin.org/pub/news/clients/tin/stable/snapshots/>
or remove
	-U_XOPEN_SOURCE -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500
from CPPFLAGS in src/Makefile (after the configure run. right before
"make build").
