>Description:
On systems with no native socklen_t definition, net/ORbit uses
#define socklen_t size_t

At the same time, net/ORbit uses devel/pth, which on such systems in pthread.h uses
typedef int socklen_t;

The result is a compile time error because size_t is being redefined.

>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
As a workaround (not nice, but works), patch configure:
