package iproute2 has problems building on recent BSD-derived platforms because some programs to be run on the host use malloc.h in an incompatible way.
package/iproute2/patches/004-darwin_fixes.patch has a fix for Darwin,
however the fix can be made to work on other BSD platforms
by changing the patch as below.
I think a similar approach should work for other BSD-derived platforms,
replacing the
#ifndef __APPLE__
with
#if !defined(__APPLE__) && !defined(__FreeBSD__) && !defined(...)
or perhaps even with just
#ifdef __linux__
if the set of platforms where malloc.h is ok is small or restricted
to just linux
In any case, the patch is below. (#3869)
