It looks like it is still getting messed up:

etc.

But I think your real problem might have something to do with the way 
socket support is checked.  Can you tell me where you got the tn5250 
source?  Did you get it from CVS or an official tarball?

Someone else reported similar errors on Solaris and I made some quick 
changes to see if it would fix it.  Would you try building tn5250 using 
the following tarball:

Then build x5250.  If that works for you I'll update CVS.
