Which compiler flags where used to compile isapnptools?

That's a bug in PCI utils.  pciutils 2.1.5 will contain:

Mon Jan 24 20:04:11 2000  Andreas Jaeger  <aj@suse.de>

	* lib/i386-ports.c: Include <asm/io.h> only on systems without

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

#include <unistd.h>

#ifdef __GLIBC__
#include <sys/io.h>
#else
#include <asm/io.h>
#endif
