Adding sys/types.h didn't work but when I read the error message again
I can see the problem, cc need either an -Aa or -Ae option to use the
ANSI compiler.  I added -Ae to the CFLAG options on line 7125 and it
doesn't complain about file locking now, however I now get:

 WARNING: trapdoor uid system - Samba may not operate correctly

which I didn't get before.  The new config.log and config.out are at:
