octave @4.4.1_0 -atlas +accelerate +gfortran +glgui +qtgui -docs: config failure

[majoc-at-astro (majoc-at-astro)]

Build from scratch (on 10.11--10.13) started failing to configure, and therefore to build, between 28th and 30th August. Log attached, but here's the top bit:

:info:configure checking for socklen_t... no
:info:configure checking for socklen_t equivalent... configure: error: Cannot find a type to use in place of socklen_t
:info:configure Command failed:  cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_math_octave/octave/work/octave-4.4.1" && ./configure --prefix=/opt/local --without-osmesa --with-framework-carbon --without-x --enable-static --disable-openmp --disable-java --with-qt=5 --without-fltk --with-framework-opengl --disable-jit --with-sndfile --with-portaudio --with-magick=GraphicsMagick --disable-docs --with-amd="-lamd -lsuitesparseconfig" --with-camd="-lcamd -lsuitesparseconfig" --with-colamd="-lcolamd -lsuitesparseconfig" --with-cholmod="-lcholmod -lsuitesparseconfig" --with-cxsparse="-lcxsparse -lsuitesparseconfig" --with-umfpack="-lumfpack -lsuitesparseconfig" --without-openssl FLIBS="-L/opt/local/lib/gcc7 -lgfortran -lquadmath -lm" --with-blas="-L/opt/local/lib -lvecLibFort" --with-lapack="" 
:info:configure Exit code: 1

This happened while I was on a week's leave, and nobody's logged into the build systems recently, so they appear to have been untouched. OS fully up-to-date.

Do let me know, please, if you need any further information. Thanks in advance.

I've run into the same problem on an up-to-date macOS 10.13.6 system. Here's the error message from config.log (see attached) regarding the socklen_t failure:

configure:59756: checking for socklen_t

2 errors generated.
configure:59756: $? = 1

This appears to be related to this message in main.log:

:info:configure checking for uid_t in sys/types.h... no

and these errors in config.log:

Looks like I have the same issue. macOS 10.12.6 From main.log (see also attachment):

Several errors in config.log - see attachment.
