Oops, I mean:

https://github.com/janestreet/core/pull/114/files

The other url seems to handle the BSD cases as:
... #elif defined(__FreeBSD__) || defined(__OpenBSD__) || defined(__NetBSD__) || defined(__DragonFly__)

Hello David,

tarlz is not included in the FreeBSD ports so I'm trying to build it from source, but I get the following error:

c++ -O2 -c create.cc -o create.o

#include<sys/sysmacros.h>               // for major, minor

Thank you very much for reporting this. It seems that sys/sysmacros.h
is not part of POSIX, in spite of its macros being needed to
encode/decode device numbers in tar/pax archives, and some POSIX
systems do not provide it.

Could you, please, try including sys/sysmacros.h conditionally in
create.cc and extract.cc like in the following example (or with other
macro suitable for FreeBSD), and tell me if it compiles. Thanks.

#if !defined __FreeBSD__
#include <sys/sysmacros.h>              // for major, minor
#endif


It seems that the major / minor / makedev are available through
sys/types.h on some BSDs, I can't find a direct source of the
information, yet.  But I am seeing some bug reports and changes like
this[1].
