--- Comment #1 from Jilles Tjoelker <jilles@FreeBSD.org> ---
Historically, BSD has not included in headers all other headers that could
possibly be necessary. One reason is to avoid namespace pollution. POSIX
prescribes that its headers may be included by themselves, but <sys/sysctl.h>
is not specified by POSIX.
