[Bug 933045] Re: headers incompatible with eglibc

Kernel headers are often included indirectly.  All headers that are
shipped in the libc-linux-dev package need to be safe wrt sharing the
namespace with the libc headers.  This is the exact reason that
definitions such as __kernel_pid_t and __kernel_time_t exist.

So this remains a valid bug.
