There are other issues as well.  Varnish likely runs the compiler with
the wrong flags (why on earth couldn't Apple keep gcc's command-line
syntax when they adopted it as their system compiler?), and for some
reason configure doesn't correctly detect the absence of strndup() and
enable the compat implementation.  Not to mention the clock_gettime()
issue, which will surely come back to bite us at some point...
