dovecot - Oct 2012 - [2.2-UNSTABLE] compilation error: 'POSIX_FADV_WILLNEED' undeclared

Hi --

I am trying to compile 2.2 (acd76b5272e9) at FreeBSD 9.0:

From configure logfile:

... the compilations runs to completion, and dovecot-2.2 UNSTABLE is running.

But: I do not have the knowledge to judge if that "fix" will be the
right one.

Just to let you know and with regards,
