It appears that the ssize_t type is not defined. Can you let the reporter
try to compile these two programs?

========================== try1.c =========================
#include <sys/types.h>
ssize_t x = -3;
int main () { return 0; }
===========================================================

========================== try1.c =========================
#include <unistd.h>
ssize_t x = -3;
int main () { return 0; }
===========================================================
