I did some more investigating. A similarly named, but almost entierly
different iterface apears in SysV. The Linux interface appears in SunOS
4.1.3. However, it's not in 4.3BSD Net/2 or Reno. Unless this was
nuked in 4.3 it looks like this is infact a SunOSism that wandered into
glibc. It appears that the authors sucessfully choose the least
portable of the three available APIs. ;-)
