  I got this problem with my Sun2s (no comments please :^]) and Sun3s.
  If the sigvec(2) call exists, elm assumes that `SV_INTERRUPT' will be
  defined (see below).

  src/init.c:
     #ifdef SIGVEC
	alarm_vec.sv_handler = alarm_signal;
	alarm_vec.sv_flags = SV_INTERRUPT;
	sigvec (SIGALRM, &alarm_vec, (struct sigvec *)0);
		/* Process Timer Alarm      */
     #else
	signal(SIGALRM, alarm_signal);          /* Process Timer Alarm      */
     #endif

  My solution (sufficient if not elegant) was to comment out the define for
  SIGVEC in config.h.
