Thanks for your work, mike!

I am not sure, whether this check

AC_CHECK_TYPE([socklen_t], [unsigned int])

is senseful, as we define socklen_t for us as unsigned int, although we
should not care about. Thus, if posix changes, gpm breaks.

Ok, you can argue that posix will never change, so this is not a big
problem.

Sincerly,

Nico
