Once again, I can't see the source right now, but I doubt that wv redefines
anything else. Try a grep in the wv directory for the offending functions
(for example grep popen *.h) to know for sure.
I believe the build was broken on FreeBSD 4 before wv was added? (The
thread entitled "FreeBSD version (was Re: Type 1 postscript font support
questions...)" appears to sugest so.)

I didn't really mean part of the 'system' as defined by FreeBSD, I meant
part of the 'system' as 'the environment which AbiWord compiles under'
(which does have glib in it because it's used by gtk, as far as I know).
Sorry if I confused anyone.
