Description: iputils PKGBUILD in core/base fails to build because the OPEN_MAX define has been removed from kernel headers >= 2.6.23


Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.

kernel: kernel26 2.6.23.8-1
iputils 20070202-3

Steps to reproduce:
makepkg -c
...
rdisc.c: In function 'do_fork':
rdisc.c:250: error: 'OPEN_MAX' undeclared (first use in this function)
rdisc.c:250: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
rdisc.c:250: error: for each function it appears in.)
make: *** [rdisc] Error 1
==> ERROR: Build Failed. Aborting...

rdisc.c needs a patch for the removed OPEN_MAX constant. Lunar linux has a patch that seems to work for it. I successfully applied the patch against archs iputils and I didn't get the build failure. No extensive testing of the in.rdiscd daemon was performed, I just executed in test mode to see if it would run.
This task depends upon
