Dear Chris,

Hum... my asumption does not seem right.
In readv.c, the only function defined is machdep_sys_readv(), and
it is defined only "ifndef HAVE_SYSCALL_READV".
On the other hand machdep.c seems to be designed for overriding
the "standard" machdep_sys_readv() defined in readv.c by a custom
machine-dependent version.
So, I suppose that a workaround is to manually define
the flags HAVE_SYSCALL_READV and HAVE_SYSCALL_WRITEV,
even though readv and writev are not really
system calls, but rather custom-defined in machdep.c.
Am I correct ?
