[CF-Devel] Compile problems

[Mark Wedel]

I've checked in the followinng change (among some others):

configure, configure.in, include/autoconf.h, includes.h: add check for
   time.h and include it if we find it.

 I'm not sure what check is doing the more complex checks for time.h and
sys/time.h compatibility.  But I've added a check so that it will only include
time.h if that is safe to include with sys/time.h

      Actually, Linux (at least as configured on my system) has *both*

      For example, include/sys/time.h does not define struct tm (which is the

      I notice there's a flag in the code to the effect of, "safe to include
