Summary0002863: Build failure on Mac OS X 10.6: Undefined symbols: _getline
DescriptionNetSurf 3.11 fails to build on an older version of macOS, Mac OS X 10.6.8:


Undefined symbols for architecture i386:
  "_getline", referenced from:
      _fatmessages_read in split-messages-d3b4b1.o
ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture i386


This isn't surprising since getline was introduced in Mac OS X 10.7.

Given the stated project goal of portability, is support for older systems that don't have getline in scope for NetSurf?
Steps To ReproduceBuild NetSurf 3.11 on Mac OS X 10.6.
