 It seems like some header files are not installed, some extracts from
 make.log:
 checking for sys/wait.h... (cached) no
 checking for vfork.h... (cached) no
 checking for working vfork... (cached) no
 checking for ANSI C header files... (cached) no
 
 I really suspect a broken installation where some of the glibc header
 files have been removed.

 Hmm... Are you using a modified glibc?

 It's a pilot error.  The reporter is using his own, probably modified,
 glibc headers.  There is nothing SuSE can do about.
 
 Andreas.
