lynx-dev Compile error on AIX with --enable-nsl-fork + patch

[Georg Drenkhahn]

The current lynx 2.8.4dev6 source code fails to compile under AIX 4.3
due to a type mismatch in HTTCP.c if the option --enable-nsl-fork is
used.  See the output below.  This is easyly fixed by checking the
preprocessor variable HAVE_TYPE_UNIONWAIT like in LYLocal.c.  The
variable is correctly set by the ./configure script.

I've included a patch to HTTCP.c which fixes the problem.
