grr... having problems building pine 4.2 on rh6(.0)

i made the modification to pico/osdep/os-lnx.h
(insert #include <sys/ioctl.h> in between line 35 and 36)

but it is still having a cow

i can ./build clean
but when i get to ./build lnp it just sucks it up...


the first error i hit is during the build of c-client/imapd/mtest:
cc -g -fno-omit-frame-pointer -O6 -DNFSKLUDGE    -c mail.c -o mail.o
In file included from /usr/include/bits/posix1_lim.h:126,
                 from /usr/include/dirent.h:191,
                 from /usr/include/sys/dir.h:24,
                 from osdep.h:40,
                 from mail.c:40:
/usr/include/bits/local_lim.h:27: linux/limits.h: No such file or
directory


then make spits out:
make[3]: *** [mail.o] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/colby/pine4.20/imap/c-client'
make[2]: *** [lnp] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/colby/pine4.20/imap/c-client'
make[1]: *** [OSTYPE] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/colby/pine4.20/imap'
make: *** [lnp] Error 2


then it tries to make pico and pilot... 
cc   -g -DDEBUG  -Dlnx -DJOB_CONTROL -DPOSIX -DMOUSE   -c main.c -o main.o
In file included from /usr/include/bits/posix1_lim.h:126,
                 from /usr/include/dirent.h:191,
                 from /usr/include/sys/dir.h:24,
                 from os.h:29,
                 from headers.h:31,
                 from main.c:38:
/usr/include/bits/local_lim.h:27: linux/limits.h: No such file or
directory

several more of the same style (that i can post upon request...)

and make says...
make: *** [main.o] Error 1

so it tries to build pine...
cc   -g -DDEBUG   -DLNX -DSYSTYPE=\"LNX\" -DMOUSE   -c addrbook.c -o
addrbook.o
In file included from /usr/include/bits/posix1_lim.h:126,
                 from /usr/include/dirent.h:191,
                 from /usr/include/sys/dir.h:24,
                 from ../pico/os.h:29,
                 from ../pico/headers.h:31,
                 from headers.h:59,
                 from addrbook.c:48:
/usr/include/bits/local_lim.h:27: linux/limits.h: No such file or
directory

and make says...
make: *** [addrbook.o] Error 1

and then, whaddya know, it can't find the binaries :o)

i have su'ed... same problem
i have tried lnx and slx and sl5 also... but lnp is the "correct" build (i
am told) for redhat... i believe i compiled 4.1 using slx

have looked in comp.mail.pine, couldn't find a similar problemo... 

if anyone has been successful or has clues, let me know ;o)
