The answer to the question is pretty much as follows
(thanks jonathan.hamilton_at_med.ge.com):

I'm just going to put the security.h include in a separate file
for compliation (and isolation of the conflicting definition of
attr_t). It would be helpful if this could be corrected in the
next release if anyone from Compaq is listening. Thanks.
