klibc - Apr 2006 - udev no longer compiles (since 1.3.5)

As the title suggests, udev no longer compiles under klibc versions > 1.3.5
It may partially be udev's fault, however, certain symbols, such as
SOCK_DGRAM, are no longer visible when compiling under klcc, which is
causing this issue.

A simple check of the linux/net.h header shows some
ARCH_HAS_SOCKET_TYPES define, which is not set internally by udev's
source.

Where would be the most appropriate place for this?  Should this be a
udev fix, or a klibc fix?

Thanks,
Aaron

SOCK_DGRAM should definitely be visible.  Most likely it's yet another 
case of kernel header breakage, since those headers haven't changed at 
all (to the best of my knowledge) in klibc at all.

The ARCH_HAS_SOCKET_TYPES is there to let an architecture override the 
global kernel define, which is a major reason why moving this into the 
klibc headers is a bad idea.

What kernel and platform is this?
