The new src/ath.h declares interfaces using socklen_t, which is not
present on OS X, so the build fails.

When I use socklen_t in my code, I use the following autoconf macro
from: http://www.hlrs.de/people/keller/configure_scripts.html

AC_DEFUN([AC_TYPE_SOCKLEN_T], [.
dnl Since the old-style (autoconf 2.13) macro AC_CHECK_TYPE(type,
replacement)
dnl only checks in <sys/types.h> we have to be more awkward:
dnl We have to check for socklen_t in <sys/types.h> -- if it's not
defined
dnl there, we also look in <sys/socket.h> (a more common place)
AC_CHECK_TYPE(socklen_t,,
AC_DEFINE(socklen_t, int, [Define to `int' if neither <sys/types.h>
nor <sys/socket.h> define.]),
[
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
])
])

An alternate, though less aesthetically pleasing, solution would be to
simply use "int".

The errors are exactly as one would expect (though the line numbers are
a bit off as I tried adding some includes):

Let me know when you'd like me to try a build from CVS.
