Re: possibly bug in C headers

This is part of libc-dev.  You kinda want it. :-)

I posted a message or two about this a month ago.  The general consensus was
that libc6 should come with both netatalk/at.h and rose.h, but due to a bug
with the libc6 Makefiles it failed to include those files.  The next release
of libc6, libc6-dev, etc. for the sparc should include this stuff.  It
probably would be a good idea for someone to check that glibc-2.0.94 package
that's floating around to see if it has these headers.

Copying rose.h from an unstable kernel tree and netatalk/at.h from the i386
netatalk-dev package should also work, but commenting those lines out is
easier.
