System: NetBSD hiro 1.5C NetBSD 1.5C (HIRO) #5: Sun Jul 30 23:02:28 CEST 2000 wiz@hiro:/archive/cvs/src/sys-i4b/arch/i386/compile/HIRO i386
>Description:
Defining _POSIX_SOURCE and including sys/socket.h fails.
>How-To-Repeat:
Compile the following program:

#define _POSIX_SOURCE
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
int main() {
    return 0;
}

Compilation fails with:

In file included from test.c:3:
/usr/include/sys/socket.h:192: syntax error before `u_char'
/usr/include/sys/socket.h:220: syntax error before `u_char'
/usr/include/sys/socket.h:222: `u_char' undeclared here (not in a function)
/usr/include/sys/socket.h:224: `u_char' undeclared here (not in a function)
/usr/include/sys/socket.h:224: `u_char' undeclared here (not in a function)
/usr/include/sys/socket.h:458: syntax error before `u_short'

>Fix:
None provided.
This is mainly a reminder PR for Klaus Klein, who said he would take
