I imagine Garrett and other standards-minded people have already seen this question, but I thought I'd echo it to the freebsd-standards mailing list. It's about a PR which makes a minor change to <sys/types.h> to solve some compile-time errors so that a program compiled with -D_POSIX_SOURCE currently gets if it references <sys/socket.h>. Seems like a plausible change to me, but I don't know enough about POSIX details to really know...
