Summary: yap @6.0.5_3 fails to build → yap @6.0.5_3: error: Yap requires pointers of size 4 or 8

The error in the log is: 

error: Yap requires pointers of size 4 or 8

but also of likely significance from the configure phase: 

:warn:configure Configuration logfiles contain indications of -Wimplicit-function-declaration; check that features were not accidentally disabled:
:msg:configure   getppid: found in yap-6/config.log
:msg:configure   sleep: found in yap-6/config.log
:msg:configure   fork: found in yap-6/config.log

yap is unfortunately a bit of a disaster. See #55370 for my failed attempt a couple years ago to update it to a more current and hopefully less buggy version.
