Good question. I'm afraid I can't offer any answer.

Hmm. That means that /usr/include/arpa/nameser_compat.h defines it,
though previously we had a problem with that. Very odd. So why it's
defining the T_xxx stuff and not HEADER is a mystery. Are there any
conditional things around the HEADER definition?

Those are functions in the resolver library. Somehow it's missing those.
I guess you have to find where they live, and add the appropriate
-lsomething to EXTRALIBS. In some systems it's -lresolv I think.
