Subject: QNX Port

Greetings,

  QNX is now compiling 5.003_08 successfully and passing all
  tests except for two which have been identified as library
  errors and are in the process of being fixed by the vendor.

  I'd like to submit a few small patches which makes this
  work. The patches are accompanied by text describing their
  motivation.

  If I am moving too fast, please tell me slow down. If you have
  suggestions for other/better approaches, please let me know.

  I will follow up with a hints file and a (possibly more
  controversial) Configure change.

Under QNX, I need to include <sys/wait.h> in util.c to prototype
waitpid(). This appears straightforward to me, but if it causes
trouble, it could be made OS-dependent.

This patch is against perl5.003_08
