Not really; the inclusion of sys/cdefs.h is made to get the __BEGIN_DECLS and __END_DECLS definitions. > Since when I compile ORBit-gt that uses sys/uio.h it fails > due to ssize_t not being defined, and it isn't in sys/cdefs.h This looks like a bug in your application (ORBit-gt) - ssize_t is defined in sys/types.h, and the manual pages of the functions declared in sys/uio.h (readv(2), writev(2)) specify that sys/types.h must be included before sys/uio.h.
