I found this in mysql/my_pthread.h:
#define ETIME ETIMEDOUT   /* For FreeBSD */

A added "-DETIME=ETIMEDOUT" to CFLAGS and minicom compiles fine.

It would be better to fix it by a patch and send it to upstream.
Could you send it if possible.

Patch was committed to the FreeBSD ports:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/comms/minicom/files/patch-src-main.c?rev=1.1;content-type=text%2Fplain

I don't know how to this committed to minicom mainline...

Sorry, I was misunderstood Alioth tracker webpage style :)
The modification is in minicom repository too.
