Adding patch below solves the problem (yes, I know, userspace is not supposed to use kernel headers...)


So why do you try it anyway?


Until someone addresses this issue with a permanent fix, is there another choice? How can any userspace library that needs to issue syscalls compile against the existing sysctl.h without this change? I'm open to suggestions, obviously this was a quick and dirty fix (copied from other existing headers in .../linux already, which is certainly no excuse).
