Well the utmp functions are stubs that don't read or write any data,
but the interfaces are there to facilitate compiling programs that
expect them to exist. If there are build errors due to stuff being
missing, we should add it.

Indeed. glibc exposes socket stuff indirectly through some other
headers, if I'm not mistaken. musl on the other hand avoids pulling in
additional headers implicitly. If this is indeed the problem, I think
just adding #include <sys/socket.h> to the file would fix it.

Agreed.
