Tried php4-STABLE-latest.tar.gz and the still get the unsatisfied symbols freeaddrinfo and getaddrinfo.

Check main/php_config.h for line with HAVE_GETADDRINFO
and add it here.

Add "it". And what "it" would you be refering to? Can you please be a bit more specific. I am a Java programmer and haven't done anything with C or C++ in a long time. I'll be glad to give anything a try. Thanks.

rephrased: Search main/php_config.h for line with text HAVE_GETADDRINFO and add that line to this bug report.

My DUH. Sorry. This is the line from main/php_config.h.

#define HAVE_GETADDRINFO 1

So the configure detects that your system has getaddrinfo()
but during compile/link, it fails. 

Try this:

# rm config.cache
# ./configure --disable-all --disable-cli 
# make clean && make

And if it fails, paste the last 20 lines of the output from 'make' here. Including the exact error.

Get the latest stable snapshot first!

I copied from the last gcc to the end from the output of make.

Okay, so in configure it's detected correctly, but during
compile, it's somehow not found..check your config.log
for this:

"checking for getaddrinfo"

And paste 2 lines before and after that line here.

Here are the lines from config.log you requested.

configure:14379: checking for vsnprintf
configure:14407: gcc -o conftest -g -O2   conftest.c -lm -lsocket  1>&5
configure:14433: checking for getaddrinfo
configure:14445: gcc -c -g -O2  conftest.c 1>&5
configure:14468: checking for strlcat

Any ideas yet?

There were some libtool/SCO related changes, please try it out..

Sorry for no feedback. I was not here to do any testing.

The make still fails with the same two missing symbols. Here are the lines from config.log on either side of "checking for getaddrinfo".

configure:14396: checking for vsnprintf
configure:14424: gcc -o conftest -g -O2   conftest.c -lm -lsocket  1>&5

Got download. Won't be able to do compile until Monday.

Please leave as Feedback until you can provide requested information. Thank you.

Still get same two unsatisfied symbols, freeaddrinfo and getaddrinfo, but this time it is reported that they are first referenced in main/network.o.

You might have got the one with broken configure.
Also, does your libsocket.* contain these missing functions?

Same error during make.

Yes, the system has freeaddrinfo and getaddrinfo. Here is part of the man page entry:

  getaddrinfo(SLIB)
  *****************

  ____________________________________________________________________________
  getaddrinfo -- nodename-to-address translation in protocol-independent
  manner

  freeaddrinfo- nodename-to-address translation in protocol-independent manner

  gai_strerror- nodename-to-address translation in protocol-independent manner

  Syntax
  ======

     cc ... -lsocket

     #include <sys/socket.h>
     #include <netdb.h>

     int
     getaddrinfo(const char *nodename, const char *servname,
             const struct addrinfo *hints, struct addrinfo **res);
     void
     freeaddrinfo(struct addrinfo *ai);

     char *
     gai_strerror(int ecode);


  Description
  ===========

     The getaddrinfo() function is defined for protocol-independent nodename-
     to-address translation.  It performs functionality of gethostbyname(SLIB)
     and getservbyname(SLIB),  in more sophisticated manner.

     The addrinfo structure is defined as a result of including the <netdb.h>
     header:
...

Any new developments on this front?

Can not fix this as I do not have access to any machine with SCO. Try find out what lib contains these functions..

Same problem. In fact /usr/include/netdb.h declares getaddrinfo and freeaddrinfo but the functions not are included in the libraries. It's a SCO problem.
