[erlang-questions] beginner: Build R12B-5 failed on Slackware 10.1.0

[Peter Wang]

I try to build R12B-5 on my linux box.
(otp_src_R12B-5.tar.gz with the patch otp_src_R12B-5_OTP-7738.patch
applied.)

$cat /etc/slackware-version
Slackware 10.1.0

$ uname -a;/lib/libc.so.6;

above is the kernel version and glibc version.

since clock_gettime() only supports CLOCK_MONOTONIC after kernel version
2.6.16, I guess.
( http://lwn.net/Articles/167897/)

so i modify file: otp_src_R12B-5/erts/emulator/sys/unix/sys.c, replace
CLOCK_MONOTONIC to CLOCK_REALTIME, and build with:

LDFLAGS="-lrt -lepoll -lcrypto" ./configure --enable-threads
--enable-smp-support --enable-kernel-poll --enable-hipe --without-ssl
--without-gs

then, run make,got error as follows:

can anyone give some advices on that? thanks.
