That is what I'm doing where the relevant kernel headers are clean enough (a subjective assesment), but linux/if.h is particularly tricky as it calls back into the libc headers to get the definition of `struct sockaddr`:

While that could probably work (I haven't tried), it would make it impossible to control the API exported by our header. Do you think it's still worth it?
