[vlc-devel] Solaris ctime_r (modules/control/http.c) and _POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS

In building vlc on Solaris, modules/control/http.c fails to compile
because it tries to use its old pre-POSIX ctime_r definition which had
3 parameters rather than 2. Adding -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS to
CFLAGS on Solaris causes it to use the POSIX ctime_r, but it probably
has many other effects too. 

Anyone know if this adding -D_POSIX_PTHREAD_SEMANTICS is harmful or a
better way to address the Solaris ctime_r compatability probem? (As I
type this I'm rebuilding vlc which is a slow process.)

vlc uses POSIX pthread semantics (on Solaris), right?

Thanks.
