Compiling libc-5.4.10/11 w. 2.1.7 header files breaks network

I was having difficulty getting libc to work when compiled w. 2.1.7 headers
whereas the 2.0.24 header files worked fine. The symptoms were - all network
daemons refusing to start after booting w. newly compiled libc.
The following patch fixes this (very minor) problem.

A kernel guru should evaluate this as there may be a reason why linux/in.h
was changed which I am unaware of.

Cheers,
Mike
