Hello,

I just inspected how other packages do this and I found the following
configure.in entry in ORBit-0.5.2 :

AC_MSG_CHECKING([for socklen_t])
AC_TRY_COMPILE(
  [#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>],
  [socklen_t len;],
  [AC_MSG_RESULT(yes)],
  [AC_DEFINE(socklen_t, size_t)
   AC_MSG_RESULT(no)])

Maybe you want to try this.

Best regards
  Steffen
