After some research, I found out it was only typedef in sys/types.h on
DU4.0d; I couldn't find it in any other platform I've got, so I'll
assume it's safe to AC_CHECK_TYPE it.

This is the new version of the patch:

Index: libjava/ChangeLog
from  Alexandre Oliva  <oliva@dcc.unicamp.br>
	* configure.in: Check types ssize_t and in_addr_t.
	* acconfig.h: Undefine them.
