Yup, POSIX specifies that "sleep()" be declared in <unistd.h> (see p. 43
of the POSIX spec, paying special attention to "If a function is not
listed below, it shall have its prototype appear in <unistd.h>..."), and
also specifies that it have type "unsigned int".

Nope.  SunOS 4.1 is probably new enough that 2.11 probably hasn't been
updated to compile under 4.1.

Yes, try putting a declaration

	unsigned sleep();

right after, say, the "long lseek();" declaration in "ifuncs.c".  If the
same problem shows up in other files, you'll need to do the same sort of
thing there.
