openbsd-compat/inet_ntoa.h missing from 3.7p1?

[Christopher R. Hertel]

I found this in config.h:

/* Define if you system's inet_ntoa is busted (e.g. Irix gcc issue) */
#define BROKEN_INET_NTOA 1

I am using Irix, but I'm using SGI's compiler, not GCC, so I commented out 
the line.  OpenSSH then compiled.

As the note below mentions, however, "3.7p1's sshd daemon can not work on 
IRIX 6.5.21."  I am running 6.5.8m and I have the same problem.  It 
*appears* as though the child process is dying when sshd tries to spawn 
off a child to handle an incomming connection:

# /usr/local/sbin/sshd -dddD

debug2: Network child is on pid 71668
debug3: preauth child monitor started

...and that's that.

Note that Irix C does not support the __func__ macro, which is why that 
last message is odd.

When I look through the ps output, I can't find pid 71668.

The include file openbsd-compat/inet_ntoa.h is not needed to compile
openbsd-compat/inet_ntoa.c on IRIX.

Why BROKEN_INET_NTOA should be defined on IRIX 5/6?

openbsd-compat/inet_ntoa.c:
#if defined(BROKEN_INET_NTOA) || !defined(HAVE_INET_NTOA)
        ...
        char *inet_ntoa(struct in_addr in) { ... }
#endif /* defined(BROKEN_INET_NTOA) || !defined(HAVE_INET_NTOA) */

configure.ac:
*-*-irix5*)
        ...
        AC_DEFINE(BROKEN_INET_NTOA)
        ...
*-*-irix6*)
        ...
        AC_DEFINE(BROKEN_INET_NTOA)
        ...

p.s.
3.7p1's sshd daemon can not work on IRIX 6.5.21.
