BISDN does.  It's only that we can't emit updated BISDN releases, as
you know.  It's already cleaned up in the BISDN CVS tree.

It's however tangled inside some #ifdef spagghetti currently, and
needs further cleanup.

#if defined(__NetBSD__) || defined(__OpenBSD__)
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <sys/select.h>
#include <sys/poll.h>
#endif

#if defined(__FreeBSD__) && __FreeBSD__>=3
#include <sys/socket.h>
#endif
#include <net/if.h>

That's horrible.
