Summary: Python does not build on OpenBSD
Initial Comment:
The new makedev/major/minor feature in posixmodule.c
breaks the build on OpenBSD.
These macros come from /usr/include/sys/types.h, and
are conditional on:
#if !defined(_POSIX_SOURCE) && !defined
(_XOPEN_SOURCE)
When ./configure is testing to find makedev etc, neither
of these macros is defined so it finds them in types.h.
However when posixmodule.c is compiled,
_XOPEN_SOURCE is defined, so makedev etc are not
available and the link fails.
