Recently? These lines your compiler complains on are very old. They've been
like this for ages.

I don't quite understand "without a linkage specifier", but try removing those
lines from the setup.h file. The only C file that uses strcasecmp() and family
is the lib/strequal.c file anyway so those prototypes should be in the setup.h
file in the first place.

This is funny. Didn't the configure script detect a gettimeofday() function in
your system? This struct is only meant to be declared if not, and I was under
the impression that all (well, most) unixes have this function.

"class-name" ? What is a class in good old traditional C?

Anyway, try renaming the 'struct FILE' to 'struct CURLFILE' in all places it
is used. I guess 'FILE' is a stupid name to use like this.
