Hi

yes, I also wonder why gentoo didn't notice some headers were 
incomplete. I think FS-UAE also use capslib 5.1, but IIRC the fixed 
capslib sources are directly included in fs-uae, unlike Hatari.

So maybe gentoo included capslib 5.1 but no software in gentoo really 
depends on it, which explains why no one saw the problem and the package 
is not fixed ?
