Well, good ol' nvi source is perplexing me again. cl_read.c declares a
few variables of type timeval (a struct in time.h). Now, these are
originally defined as "struct timeval"s, which gives me the pretty
little make error "storage size of 'poll' is unknown" (where 'poll' is 
the name of one of the timeval objects). Commenting out the "struct"
in "struct timeval" gives me "'timeval' undeclared". So, I did a nice
little file search for all files containing "timeval" and found that
it was defined (surprise, surprise) in <time.h>. However, it's 
surrounded by some include guards - namely,
#ifndef __dj_ENFORCE_ANSI_FREESTANDING, #ifndef __STRICT_ANSI__, and
#ifndef _POSIX_SOURCE. Now, I actually am not sure when these are
defined by default, but just in case I commented out all three of those
and their corresponding #endifs. The "timeval undeclared" error did
NOT go away. So ... what's going on? @_@
