I've received much help with this off list.  What was suggested and seems to 
work is to comment out <stdint.h> contrib/gensnmptree/gensnmptree.c but I've
received another email saying that may cause other problems, anyways
my buildworld is still in progress (for 10hrs now).  I'm told the author of  
contrib/gensnmptree/gensnmptree.c ? is aware of the problem so I have no 
doubt it will be fixed sooner or later.
