Hm. Did you send a patch to the upstream kernel to fix that? We
shouldn't be using that 'u32' abomination in user-visible headers.

If it's something which libc might include for itself, we have to avoid
standard C types and use '__u32' to avoid namespace 'pollution'. 

Otherwise, as seems to be the case here, we can just require <stdint.h>
and use the proper 'uint32_t' type.
