macOS: build warnings and error #2

Closed grylem closed 5 years ago

grylem commented 5 years ago

too many warnings and ./compat.h:20:29: error: expected identifier char *group_from_gid(gid_t, int); Thanks.

I suspect with MacOS X, the issue is going to be different header files. However, MacOS X already provides BSD variants of these commands. Linux is what I am targeting, so my patches and modifications are aimed at a Linux glibc platform.

Nonetheless, I am not opposed to making this work on MacOS X. I don't have one of those systems, so I can't do much without more debugging output or access to a MacOS X system.
