From man sysinfo:

SYSINFO(2)                 Linux Programmer's Manual                SYSINFO(2)



NAME
       sysinfo - returns information on overall system statistics

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/sysinfo.h>

       int sysinfo(struct sysinfo *info);

DESCRIPTION
...

CONFORMING TO
       This function is Linux-specific, and should not  be  used  in  programs
       intended to be portable.

This header and its contents are linux-specific. You're not going to be able to make it compile without rewriting or ripping out whatever parts use it. (The programming forum here may be able to help you with that.) If you're lucky, it's not actually using sysinfo and you can comment out the errant #include.
