0.32.1 compiles fine for me on 10.3. (I just tried from the clean tarball.)

% grep POLL apr/include/arch/unix/apr_private.h | grep '^#define'
#define HAVE_POLL 1
#define HAVE_POLLIN 1
#define HAVE_POLL_H 1
#define HAVE_SYS_POLL_H 1

Do you have the same #define's in apr_private.h (output of autoheader in APR)?

Ensure that your /usr/include/poll.h has the struct pollfd defined. Here's an
interesting tidbit from that file:

#ifndef POLL_NO_WARN
#warning "poll() functionality for Mac OS X is implemented via an emulation
layer on top of select(), not in the kernel directly. It is recommended that
programs running under OS X 10.3 prefer select() over poll(). Configure
scripts should look for the _POLL_EMUL_H_ define (instead of _POLL_H_ or
_SYS_POLL_H_) and avoid implementations where poll is not implemented in the
kernel."
#endif

Hmph. Perhaps we should build that logic into APR to avoid poll() on 10.3 in
this case, but regardless it's not breaking for me here.

Anyone else seeing this? -- justin
