>Description:
The inline function __cmsg_nxthdr() defined in
/usr/include/bits/socket.h is visible for non-gcc compilers.
Without it, I assume <socket.h> won't work.
>How-To-Repeat:
I was checking out lcc-4.1 on a file that #includes <sys/socket.h>
lcc is a simple ANSI C compiler available as source from
http://www.cs.princeton.edu/software/lcc/
>Fix:
Don't use non-gcc compilers on Linux :(
