Hi,

Looks like this issue is also RT 119118, filed Oct. 3.  I support the
suggestion.  However, wouldn't the preferred name be "struct afs_conn"?

With regard to the gmake story, I'm suspicious.  I'm told gmake is the
'correct' make, for the solaris builds, but for me libafs.o is not built
without an equivalent change to the declaration of struct conn.  The
libafs.nonfs.o is built, however, possibly your friend doesn't use the
nfs translator and didn't notice?

(btw, didn't jake do some work with solaris function prototypes
recently?  don't see them in RT...)
