As I remarked in another note, much of my code probably would.

No.  You just have to treat it as an OS bug and patch over it.
Personally, I do this by maintaining a shadow include tree that holds
fixed copies of OS include files, and the cc (well, gcc) command on my
path is a wrapper that provides the necessary -I options to make it
pick stuff up from the shadow tree.

The only downside to this technique that I've found is that it makes me
forget that the OS include files are broken, which is a problem if/when
I go to distribute my code.  (Yes, I know that missing prototypes is
not "broken" for SunOS - I use the shadow include tree to "fix" other
bugs in the include files too.)
