Here you go, create the file <sys/sioctl.h> with the following content:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

/*    suplimental  tty control character stuff     */

struct tchars {
        char    t_intrc;        /* interrupt */
        char    t_quitc;        /* quit */
        char    t_startc;       /* start output */
        char    t_stopc;        /* stop output */
        char    t_eofc;         /* end-of-file */
        char    t_brkc;         /* input delimiter (like nl) */
};
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Should take care of your problem. Sorry, but I do not recall which file
it was that was supposed to be compiled without optimization, but I imagine
someone else out there will remember.
