On NetBSD/sparc-1.5, neither getpt nor openpty are available.
Comment 1 Kevin Vandersloot 2003-11-08 14:35:59 UTC 
Fixed in 2.5.x libgtop and gnome-system-monitor.
Comment 2 Adrian Bunk 2003-11-09 16:19:14 UTC 
Compilation of 2.5.1 still fails with this error.
Comment 3 Adrian Bunk 2003-11-09 17:40:36 UTC 
Some more information:

The information in my initial report that openpty is not available on
NetBSD was wrong.

system-monitor compiles if you change in src/util.c the #ifdef before
the getpt function for FreeBSD to
  #if defined(__FreeBSD__) || defined(__NetBSD__)

But different to FreeBSD, it's additionally required to link
gnome-system-monitor with libutil.
Comment 4 alexander.winston 2004-01-29 17:27:37 UTC 
Adding the portability keyword.
Comment 5 Benoît Dejean 2005-01-16 12:14:59 UTC 
These hacks have been replaced by libgnomesu.
