That was an aside rather than a reason. The reason is that your system
warns if a symbol in a program re-defines one in a library.

HEADER is defined as a structure in /usr/include/arpa/nameser_compat.h
on my box. This is included automatically from
/usr/include/arpa/nameser.h. I cannot think of any way of fudging round
this one.

T_SOA was one I overlooked when I added the other T_xx thing defaults.
But as I can't do the structure, you will have to find out whether there
are any definitions of these things on your box. It is indeed the BIND 8
compatibility issue. If there is a file that defines them, we might be
able to sort this out.
