I have no Solaris around, hence I didn't see that problem :-)

My output:

cd pppd; make  all
make[1]: Entering directory `/srv/src/net/ppp/pppd'
musl-gcc -O2 -pipe -Wall -g -DHAVE_PATHS_H -DIPX_CHANGE -DHAVE_MMAP -I../include '-DDESTDIR="/usr/local"' -DCHAPMS=1 -DMPPE=1 -DHAS_SHADOW -DHAVE_CRYPT_H=1 -I/usr/include/openssl -DHAVE_MULTILINK -DUSE_TDB=1 -DPLUGIN -DINET6=1 -DMAXOCTETS   -c -o sha1.o sha1.c

     time_t xmit_idle;  /* time since last NP packet sent */
     ^

     time_t recv_idle;  /* time since last NP packet received */
     ^
make[1]: *** [sha1.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/srv/src/net/ppp/pppd'

the time_t type isn't defined while being used.
AFAIK, time_t is defined in time.h

Wrapping the include inside a #ifdef SOLARIS seems the most correct solution.
including sys/time.h works, but that is rather by accident at this moment.

Kind regards,
Kurt
