RE: Compile error on SCO Port (ITS#2373)

[hyc@highlandsun.com]

The h_errno variable is a required definition in the /usr/include/netdb.h
header file. If it's not present there on SCO, please tell us what header
file actually does declare it. Adding a bald h_errno definition to our own
files will break portability with 99% of other platforms.
