<sys/capability.h> is /still/ broken. there was a bug filed against the
kernel, but the problem is actually the userspace header, which 'cheats'
the preprocessor rather badly:

#include <linux/types.h>
#include <stdint.h>

/*
 * Make sure we can be included from userland by preventing
 * capability.h from including other kernel headers
 */
#define _LINUX_TYPES_H
#define _LINUX_FS_H
#define __LINUX_COMPILER_H
#define __user

typedef unsigned int __u32;
typedef __u32 __le32;

#include <linux/capability.h>

nasty...

cheers, kyle
