Yes, that's easy. The problem is, for example, the version of sys/socket.h
provided by some OSs, that does not contain the definition of socklen_t...

So, I need to provide the definition of socklen_t, and then to include the
"original" sys/socket.h.

In this way, I prevent the inclusion of the header provided by the OS, no?
In the example above, I need to include the sys/socket.h from the OS for
having some definitions, and to provide some other definitions in
libbrokenos's header. Or are you saying that the configure can merge the
two headers, and libbrokenos can force the inclusion of this "merged header"?
That could be a solution; I'll think about it...
