Re: FTBFS on OpenBSD 5.5

[Daniel Miller <bonsaiviking () gmail com>]

Regarding George's report of iovec not being defined, POSIX does define
<sys/uio.h> as defining this structure (
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904875/basedefs/sys/uio.h.html), so
we should probably include it. There may be some platform considerations to
handle before just unilaterally including it; see this Qemu commit:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2008-12/msg00201.html
