Okay, replaced by fdpassing.c

Folks succeeded building gpgms for MAC OS X. I need to check how they
did it.

Hopefully solved now.  May I send you another tarball for testing?

I fixed this by defining the assuan error codes and not using an
enum. Also typedefed assuan_error_t to int.

Well, that should be socklen_t.

Silly wrong repaclement macro which defiend it to setenv.

Not sure about this.

Add a function definition.  However the real cause might be a wrong
detection of putc_unlocked.

Well, we use a the ELF weak pragma to use the pth functions if they
are available (i.e. the binary is linked with pth).  This is not
really portable but the best we can do for now.  When switching to a
shared library we will do one library for each threading model.

defed to AF_UNIX

Many thanks,
