	   This creates a compile problem for gssrpc library applications
   that include rpc/netdb.h, which also defines the structure.

We encountered this problem at OV, and it was equally annoying.  I
believe the solution we used was similar to

   * If _GSSRPC_PROVIDE_STRUCT_RPCENT_ is defined, then provide the
   structure.

with the define set or not set by the architecture file (we didn't use
configure).  Check Makefile.ov and config.mk/* for details.
