I'm curious what applications expect this header and definitions.
glibc does not have such a header. My impression is that it might have
existed at some point but that it was removed a long time ago, and
that any use of capabilities without libcap (which presumably contains
its own copy of the definitions for interfacing with the kernel) was
long ago deprecated.
Can you clear these issues up?
