As far as I can tell right now, "sendfile" is not supported on Mac OS X. There's no manual page, and it doesn't seem to be in any sytem library. There is a prototype in sys/socket.h, but it's wrapped in an #ifdef that's never #defined. When I last build the HEAD here, I didn't have any problems - ./configure found out that sendfile is not supported, and everything is fine until I try to use it (there wasn't yet a fallback implementation then). What did configure say on the subject of sendfile?
configure says: checking for sendfile in sys/sendfile.h... no checking for sendfile in sys/socket.h... no I tried building again just now, just to be sure, and still got the same error message ("Sendfile.hsc:19: Variable not in scope: `c_sendfile'").
