Be in want of (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

need

'be in want of' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for need that I've seen before include "Call" , "Necessitate" , "Require (as essential)" , "state requiring relief" , "Cry out for - prerequisite" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror and The Independent.
