Comment (by johnmaddock):

 Apologies for the long delay, setting _ _USE_XOPEN2K doesn't work as
 features.h #undef's it.

 It gets set when _POSIX_C_SOURCE is >= 200112L (setting this on the
 command line does fix the issue BTW), but by default sun sets
 _POSIX_C_SOURCE to 199506L.  So I think that the correct fix for enabling
 the feature is to check that _POSIX_TIMEOUTS is set, and that
 _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L as well.  pthread.h BTW is the standard Linux
 system one.

 HTH, John.
