   Yes.  You can't include Linux kernel headers directly in a user-space
   application as they're not guaranteed to compile in user-space.

That's hogwash, including linux/rtnetlink.h and linux/xfrm.h are the
only sane ways you can get at the IPSEC userspace APIs right now.

Or do you suggest that we should wait for GLIBC to get these in it's
headers?  That's fine, you can wait and meanwhile the rest of us evil
people including kernel headers in user applications we get the use
the IPSEC stack :-)
