Thanks for the reply, Martin. I know a bit of C. I thought maybe I was missing something simple, since I don't have an exotic system configuration.
Re: lchown the file posixmodule.c in Python does include <sys/types.h> and I have that header where it should be, i.e. /usr/include/sys/types.h so I don't know why it tells me lchown is implicitly defined after the include. The next error with statvfs.h perhaps makes more sense. I do not have /usr/include/sys/statvfs.h on my system, and the statement #include <sys/statvfs.h> is in an include guard, #if defined(HAVE_FSTATVFS). I assume that's not being detected properly by the configure script? I hope that information is of some use. Not sure where to go from here.
