zsh-3.1.9 compile failure on newer Linux

[Dan Wilder <wilder@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I write to report failure of zsh-3.1.9 to build on Linux with
kernel 2.4-test1, glibc-2.1.2, gcc-2.95.2.  This failure is
redeemed by a simple but heavy-handed hack in config.h.  No
doubt somebody with more finesse than I could make it build
without modification on such a sytem.

The config.h hack is to change

/* #undef HAVE_SYS_RESOURCE_H */

to

#define HAVE_SYS_RESOURCE_H 1

in config.h.

My configure is:

./configure --prefix=

some time after "make" I get:

make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/zsh-3.1.9/Src'
gcc -c -I. -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -Wall -Wno-implicit -Wmissing-prototypes -O2  -o builtin.o builtin.c
In file included from zsh.mdh:26,
                 from builtin.c:30:
		 exec.epro:26: `RLIM_NLIMITS' undeclared here (not in a function)
		 exec.epro:27: `RLIM_NLIMITS' undeclared here (not in a function)
		 make[2]: *** [builtin.o] Error 1
		 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/zsh-3.1.9/Src'
		 make[1]: *** [modobjs] Error 2
		 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/zsh-3.1.9/Src'
		 make: *** [all] Error 1


>From the current getrlimit manpage, I see:

       #include <sys/time.h>
       #include <sys/resource.h>
       #include <unistd.h>

I see "system.h" includes <sys/time.h> and <unistd.h> but not
<sys/resource.h>.

With the modification, I get a bunch of warnings
about RLIM_INFINITY being redefined, but zsh now compiles.

Thanks for this fine shell ... I may yet succeed in getting
users at Specialized Systems Consultants, publishers of Linux
Journal, to standardize on zsh for all new user shells, and
perhaps even persuade some of the old-line ksh users to come
over!
