If you are using windows ODK expects _WIN32 to be defined (to get the correct sockets headers). GNU C may not define that automatically for windows executables, so you may need to include it in the compiler command line (is the command -D _WIN32?)
Gunnar had some problems with the header files. I think he was using Red Hat Linux on Windows. I will quote from him:
There were two issues; one of which was a function declared as foo( int bar, fdset*, fdset* ) (more or less), after removing "bar" it worked. This looks like a bug in the headers - after all, they are designed to work with GCC. The other problem was that u_int wasn't defined for the particular combination of satisfied #ifdef conditions in the code. This one might be possible to overcome by including some other header file that is known to declare u_int, or possibly by defining certain symbols (gcc -D_BSD_SOURCE and something more might do the trick).
[Presumably one could just typedef unsigned int u_int; to solve the second problem. - Chris]
