These are the simple changes I had to do to compile libossupport on 
OS/2. Obviously the makefile changes will be handled by the build 
system, same with defining HAVE_INET-ATON. One observation is that gcc 
3.3.5 does not like -Wdeclaration-after-statement.
FFmpeg will need to include netinet/in.h for socklen_t and link with 
libossupport for poll.
