As I posted earlier:

My fix was to edit linux/socket.h, put in an #if 0 right after the
include <linux/uio.h>, and an #endif right after the #define
MSG_PROXY.  That's sufficient to allow a number of network programs to
actually build.  I suspect, but have not confirmed, that you can ditch
the SOL_* defines (since they're in bits/in.h) and the IP_TOS defines
(same place); TCP_NODELAY is in netinet/tcp.h.  Looks like SOPRI_*
haven't shown up anywhere else yet, so I guess you can't completely
ditch the file, though.
