[bug-mailutils] Patch to build mailutils-1.2 on hpux

[John David Anglin]

Attached is a quick and dirty patch which allowed me to build
mailutils-1.2 on hpux10.20 with gcc 4.2.0.  I configured with
'--disable-nls' '--disable-pthread' since I didn't think thread
support would work.  Probably, it would work with hpux11.  I
believe that the changes that I have done are relevant to hpux11
as well although I haven't tried them.

There are probably cleaner ways to handle most of the issues.  In
particular, I wasn't successful in finding a way to only use the
included vsyslog.c when not available on the target.  There are
probably better implementations of vsyslog.c than what I found.

I encountered a couple of other issues not addressed by the attached
change.  1) the hpux versions of sysexits.h doesn't define EX_CONFIG.
2) Apparently, some old guile headers define error_t to int leading
to a build failure.  This guile problem is fixed in the latest version.

Since the changes are all minor configuration issues, hopefully you
will consider updating mailutils to support hpux.
