Tantive patch

I've hit this myself just now.

Having a look at the failing part of the source code it looks like what they
define as a kludge is not necessary anymore and has been fixed in base r324=
622.

I also suspect the kludge was already not necessary when they switched from
including stddef.h to including sys/stddef.h, which has never diverged from
types.h in the definition of offsetof.

I've made a very simple patch removing the kludge and simply including the
required files. It does compile, but I still have to test it at runtime, wh=
ich
I will do once building a bunch of other packages is done and report back.

I'm anyway attaching my patch for reference.
