Ok. timeval is defined in /sys/time.h.


#if _XOPEN4UX || defined(_BSD_TYPES) || defined(_BSD_COMPAT)
/** Structure returned by gettimeofday(2) system call,* and used in other calls.* Note this is also defined in
sys/resource.h*/
#ifndef _TIMEVAL_T
#define _TIMEVAL_T
struct timeval {
#if _MIPS_SZLONG == 64__int32_t :32;
#endiftime_t    tv_sec;        /* seconds */long    tv_usec;    /* and microseconds */
};


It looks like it won't be used unless XOPEN4UX, BSD_TYPES, or
BSD_COMPAT is defined.

Is there a way to force the build to define one of these flags. Which
one would be best, what's the syntax and what file should it be added
into in the Postgres source?

Thanks.
