Actually, I've been taking a look at the code in libvncserver and we're a bit 
out of luck here. Since it's not part of KDE code, it doesn't include 
config.h, so Autoconf tests won't help.

Anyways, the code is perfectly valid POSIX code. It's your system that doesn't 
provide socklen_t... :/

My suggestion is that you edit rfb.h, and add a section like:

#ifdef __IRIX__
typedef unsigned socklen_t;
#endif

diff -u originalfile newfile

or, in case of dirs:
diff -ur originalpackage modifiedpackage

if you're using code obtained from CVS, it's even easier:
cvs diff -u

(note: some older versions of diff don't support -u Unified Diff)
