Your fixincludes run probably didn't work for some reason.  Do a simple
test:

#include <sys/ioctl.h>
SIOCGIFCONF

Run that through cc -E and gcc -E.  The last line of output is the
piece of interest; it should be identical (modulo irrelevant
differences like whitespace).  If the gcc version has 'x' where the cc
version has 'i', your fixincludes run didn't work for some reason or
other.  If they are identical, try running a make clean in mit/server
and rebuilding, just to make sure everything gets compiled with the
proper include files. If that still doesn't help I have no further
suggestions, short of poking around with a debugger....
