  It does not.  There seem to be some sort of incompatibilities between
compat/incude/sys/cdefs.h and the one in /usr/include/sys.  I am not
sure what it is, but if you simply _remove_ all references to the one in
compat it compiles fine (and, of course, there is no reason to use the
bsd44 compatibility package :).

  Now there _is_ the problem of getting the patches to libc to work.
They simply _don't_.  It seems that the resolver in FreeBSD 2.1 is not
the same code as the Net-2 distribution.  Has someone more familiar with
the libc/net source tried to make sense of this and make a reasonable
patch to get the resolver up to 4.9.3 patch1?

  *shrug* what do I care?  When is the last time that I did not use lynx
or ange-ftp for ftp'ing anyways...
