This breaks POSIX conformance in glibc because the
<linux/posix_types.h> header is not namespace clean.  It contains the
identifiers fds_bits and val:

	unsigned long fds_bits[__FD_SETSIZE / (8 * sizeof(long))];

        int     val[2];

We could duplicate some of the SO_* constants for POSIX mode in glibc,
but it would be nice to avoid that.

Is there a different way of fixing this on the kernel side that avoids
including <linux/posix_types.h>?
