Ok, Tor Arntsen's builds only run on more recent AIX version by they all work
fine (except for a few which has other problems not related to this). But the
guys at ucla.edu (http://aixpdslib.seas.ucla.edu/packages/curl.html) must've
been able to build it since they offer binaries of curl 7.12.3 on AIX 4.1...

The problem seem to be the 'in_addr_t' typedef. Can you check if that is
defined in lib/config.h after you ran configure?

Can you also check what your system's inet_addr() function returns?

If your system _has_ a in_addr_t typedef'ed somewhere, can you figure out in
which header file?
