The changes were made courtesy of your local ANSI, POSIX, and X/OPEN standards

SysV code should compile "straight out of the box". If you are running into
"ANSI C"-type problems, add -D_NO_PROTO (no function prototyping) and
-D_ALL_SOURCE (superset to 'standards' namespace - this should be a default,
but the default may have been changed recently).
