Declaration specifier expected near 'ssize_t'

[demyanovs]

Hi,
When I include file "local geo = require 'resty.maxminddb'" I get an error:
lua entry thread aborted: runtime error: .../resty_modules/lualib/resty/maxminddb.lua:115: declaration specifier expected near 'ssize_t' at line 73

It seems that should be typedef ssize_t in case if it is not declared.
When I declare ssize_t as long or size_t, the error disappears.

My lua version: 5.1

@demyanovs thanks for your report.
it works for me(ubuntu).

paste your env plz.

os version: e.g. cat /etc/os-release
openresty version: e.g. openresty -V
maxmind/libmaxminddb version: e.g. mmdblookup --version

This error occurred when I ran lua without openresty, so the error is probably on my side.
