latest minicom/cvs missing required TCGETS symbol on osx

on/about Sep 4, i'd co'd minicom cvs/head, and built without problem
on osx 10.4.10.

i've recently upgrade to osx 10.5.0 (Leopard).

and, i've just co'd a fresh minicom cvs/head.

building,

	./configure ...

completes without error.

subsequent,

	make

fails at,

	...
	gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I..  -I/usr/local/include/ncurses
-I/usr/local/include/ -I../lib -DCONFDIR=\"/usr/local/etc\"
-DLOCALEDIR=\"/usr/local/share/locale\" -I/usr/local/include/ncurses
-I/usr/local/include/ -g -O2 -Wall -W -g -O2 -c main.c
	main.c: In function 'get_device_status':
	main.c:533: error: 'TCGETS' undeclared (first use in this function)
	main.c:533: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
	main.c:533: error: for each function it appears in.)
	make[2]: *** [main.o] Error 1
	make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
	make: *** [all] Error 2

exploring, and comparing with minicom release v2.2,

	grep -rlni TCGETS /build/minicom-2.2
		(empty)
	
	grep -rlni TCGETS /build/minicom-cvs
		./src/main.c
	
	grep TCGETS -B5 -A5 ./src/main.c
		static int get_device_status(int fd)
		{
		  struct termios t;
		  if (portfd_is_socket && portfd_is_connected)
			return 1;
		  return !ioctl(fd, TCGETS, &t);
		}
		
		/* Update the timer display. This can also be called from updown.c */
		void timer_update(void)
		{

it seems minicom's reference to TCGETS is new/recent.

unfortunately, it's not found in my dev env.

can someone point me to the symbol source, or help a bit with a workaround?

thanks!
