Looks like your HP-UX compiler cannot find the definition of the
RPC service entry structure "rpcent". This is usually defined in either
the <netdb.h> or <rpc/netdb.h> file.

What's in your include/config.h file ? There should be a line with
either "#define HAVE_RPCENT_H" or "#undef HAVE_RPCENT_H".

Is there a file /usr/include/netdb.h on your system ? How about 
/usr/include/rpc/netdb.h ?

(Why must HP-UX have all the standard definitions in non-standard 
 places ? Sigh ...)
