declaration conflicts

In inetutils-1.3.2 from ftp.uu.net,

* There are conflicting types for `hstrerror':
  syslogd/syslogd.c:1137  vs.  ../include/config.h:588

   syslogd declares (in-line) "extern char *hstrerror __P((int));"
   but ../include/config.h declares it "const char *".

* There are conflicting types for `strerror':
  talk/utility.c:373  vs.  ../include/config.h:592

   Same problem.  utility.c's "char buf[BUFSIZ], *strerror ();"
   conflicts with "const char *" in ../include/config.h.

I leave to you to decide whether to:
  1) remove the in-line declarations entirely (both files do #include
      <config.h> at the top), (the best choice if it works) or 
  2) change the in-line declarations, (works) or
  3) change the declarations in include/config.h (seems inferior).
