Can you try to find that line in your header files?
It may well be in your /usr/include (or similar) directory tree.
Try:

  find $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms /usr/include -type f -print | xargs grep __readfds

If you find it then please send the file to me. Thanks.

The C::Scan code is rather too inscrutable to work out what the problem
is from that end :-/  (Fundamentally though there ought to be a way to
tell it not to die, or at least to catch it warn and continue.)
