Just to test it, I tried on an old Solaris 10 sparc (gcc 3.4.3) and what 
I get is:

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../..  -I../../src/lib -I../../src/lib-test 
-I../../src/lib-dns -I../../src/lib-ssl-iostream -I/usr/local/include  
-std=gnu99 -g -O2 -Wall -W -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations 
-Wpointer-arith -Wchar-subscripts -Wformat=2 -Wbad-function-cast 
-fno-builtin-strftime -I/usr/sfw/include    -MT test-http-server.o -MD 
-MP -MF .deps/test-http-server.Tpo -c -o test-http-server.o 
test-http-server.c
test-http-server.c: In function `main':
test-http-server.c:128: error: size of array `type name' is negative
gmake[3]: *** [test-http-server.o] Error 1
