To be precise, it breaks the pollfd test - *if* you don't use config.cache. 
This is somewhat understable for CI, though it will waste time and energy. But 
it is mostly self-inflicted pain for own builds.

The problem is that VLC configure checks for headers *after* checking for 
typedefs. This makes no sense (and contradicts the sample configure script).
