It works, thank you.
I applied it also to the gnulib copies in gettext 0.18.2 and it builds now.

For Solaris 2.6 the timestruc_t problem remains and I will look at that 
next.
Further there are some build issues in the testsuite on both Solaris 2.6 
& 7.

It's documented that gnulib does not implement the missing functionality 
but I think the test still needs to be buildable.

There is a related error on Solaris 8 & 9:

For Solaris 8 & 9 it needs to link with libsocket to get these functions 
(they're wrongly documented in the system manpages as being in libxnet).

There are some link errors related to a missing gettext symbol, some 
modules are missing an LDADD for LIBINTL.
