Answer 1

Try to compile with -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=500, so IOV_MAX is defined.

Answer 2

I had the same problem, and both this answer and your (unanswered) question in ServerFault were at the top of Google.

Managed to work out the problem at the end, posted at ServerFault: https://serverfault.com/questions/353987/memcache-repcached-complie-error/375998#375998
