fix has already posted....
Hi.

Yes, that's true. I changed the headers in the crosscompiler before I could
be able to compile any network-related tool. The gurus report it as a known
problem.
Here's a segment I added to my
/usr/local/linuxce-softfloat/mipsel-linux/include/socketbits.h header:
/* Get socket manipulation related informations from kernel headers. */
#ifndef _LINUX_TYPES_H
# define _LINUX_TYPES_H
#endif
#include <asm/socket.h>
#ifndef SOCK_DGRAM
#define SOCK_DGRAM 1 /* Connectionless, unreliable datagrams
of fixed maximum length. */
#define SOCK_STREAM 2 /* Sequenced, reliable, connection-based
byte streams. */
#define SOCK_RAW 3 /* Raw protocol interface. */
#define SOCK_RDM 4 /* Reliably-delivered messages. */
#define SOCK_SEQPACKET 5 /* Sequenced, reliable, connection-based,
datagrams of fixed maximum length. */
#define SOCK_PACKET 10 /* Linux specific way of getting packets at
the dev level. For writing rarp and
other similar things on the user level.
*/
#endif /* SOCK_DGRAM */
hope this helps
