I was trying to compile ftape 4.03_pre2 on a debian 2.1 system with
libc6. (aka glibc2). The compilation stops abruptly with a message like

fdc-io.c: In function `fdc_interrupt_wait':
fdc-io.c:433: structure has no member named `timeout'
fdc-io.c:454: structure has no member named `timeout'
make[2]: *** [fdc-io.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/ftape/ftape-4.03-pre-2/ftape/lowlevel'

make[1]: *** [modules] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/ftape/ftape-4.03-pre-2/ftape'
make: *** [all] Error 2

I tried tracking down the header files to be included, and found that
all the header files are where they are supposed to be. The system is a
straight Debian 2.1, everything from the stable tree. What can I do to
fix this problem short of trying different libc packages?
