taking that error (from clean source, I assume) means that, for some reason, no
header is included which provides 'ssize_t'.  after a quick look on my system, I
think including 'unistd.h' would do.  alternatively, you could, at the top of
whichever .cpp file, add a definition (ideally with a '#ifndef' guard) like:
  #define ssize_t int

POSIX guarantees a max of 32767, I think.

hth.
