From: Robert A Basch <rbasch@MIT.EDU>
The release of 9.2.28 to the dev cell broke the development environment
on my 9.2.27 Sun, due to the absence of /usr/include/sys/rwstlock.h;
this header is added by the 112233-11 jumbo kernel patch we applied,
and is now included by /os/usr/include/sys/vnode.h (to which we have a
symlink on local disk).
It looks like anything which includes <sys/socket.h> or <netinet/in.h>
is affected. I am reasonably certain that taking the 9.2.28 update
will resolve the problem, though I have not verified this yet.
There appear to be other new headers added in the patch, but I have not
investigated the possible impact of their absence.
