klibc ftbfs on all archs

[Alexander Sack]

ftbfs during thumb2 rebuild:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/klibc/1.5.15-1ubuntu3

... feels this needs some love to build with latest kernel headers.

Yes, the error this fails with is:

In file included from usr/klibc/../include/netinet/in.h:11,
                 from usr/klibc/../include/arpa/inet.h:11,
                 from usr/klibc/inet/inet_ntoa.c:6:

linux/include/linux/in.h:188: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before 'sa_family_t'
make[3]: *** [usr/klibc/inet/inet_ntoa.o] Error 1

(linux/include/linux here is a symlink to /usr/include/linux)

sa_family_t is only defined in /usr/include/sockaddr.h, an eglibc header that /usr/include/linux/in.h does not include. So this looks to me like a regression in the kernel-provided headers.

<cough> midair collision - nevermind :)
